Lavender God Bless You

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! I hope you get to spend some time with your loved ones today - and not just waiting for reservations.  ;)

I just love new toys - and none better than dies!  Spellbinders new Mary Border Strip is just pure elegance.  And since I love flowers and butterflies (as well as being very ready for winter to be over), I combined it all in this card.  I die cut PoppyStamps Cheviot Butterfly   and Delaney Butterfly three times each out of Bazzill Wild Pansy paper and adhered them on top of the white Mary Border Strip layer.  The blue floral vellum was the perfect soft background as well as some organza lavender ribbon.  I hot glued a spray of Wild Orchid Flowers and a tag featuring ODBD Ornate Frame Sentiments as well as some leaves from Memory Box Fresh FoliageA final touch was some pearls for the bodies of the butterflies.
