I love this darling mix of bold sentiment and rustic charm. The key “ingredient” was the Lovely Friends stamp set! It makes a simple and pretty card a snap!

I love hearing from you! Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Wood Textures Designer Series Paper provides instant rustic charm. I love how the shot of Melon Mambo gives a modern twist to the neutral palette.

- The little butterflies were cropped with the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits Dies. Each gets a little bling with one of the Stampin’ Up! Gold Faceted Gems.
- Offsetting the layers just a bit adds new interest.
