For my card base I covered a white card with a shimmering slightly embossed paper and then added a dark green layer in the same type of paper. The green layer was mounted with foam tape. Next I added some lace and allowed it to hang over the right edge a bit and on top of that some pink organza ribbon. The ribbon does not really show unless you look hard but is the same ribbon I used for the bow and is a nice way to carry the colour.
What fun I had making my bow lol, I was trying to make something that resembled sections of a butterfly in keeping with the image. To hold my bow in place I used a hat pin to which I added pearls and a hand made bead along with a bit of old broken necklace. The pointy end of the hat pin was then passed through my bow from bottom to top and the end then bent over to make a hook. The hook end was then secured to the back of the image. Below you can see a close up of the hat pin and bow.
Onto my flowers. I used Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms and Foliage. Two of the roses were cut using the same paper as I used to back my card and the other three some patterned Papermania paper. The leaves were cut using the same dark green paper I had used earlier. To complete my flower spray I added a small net and wire butterfly and dotted some pearls around.
Thank you for stopping by and hope you are having a special day taday :)
