This is an A2 card (4.25" x 5.5"). It is a valentine for my friend, Jenny, who has been with me thru thick and thin! We have been friends for over 20 years and what ever one of us goes thru, so does the other. When ever anyone talks about "best friends" I think of her. She is one of those people who will do anything she can when ever you need her.
The card base is Bazzill bling cardstock. The patterened paper in the center is wallpaper border (how green is that!). The green paper is from DCWV-"Shimmer Stack". The white cardstock is bargain brand from ACMoore. I ran that thru the Cuttlebug with the "textiles" embossing folder. The sentiment stamp is from a clear set by "My Sentiments Exactly". I stamped it with a lime green ink by Nicole crafts, cut it apart, mounted each word seperately on the Bazzill cardstock and adhered them to the white paper. The butterfly is cut with the Cricut and Gypsy Wanderings cart. I cut 4 layers in different papers and only glued a small area so it could fly a bit. The hearts are paper clips that I just had to have from somewhere and have never used. The ribbon roses are by Offray.
