Birthday Butterflies Greeting Card

I'm still on a butterfly kick!  Oh well, I'll continue to go with it until something elese inspires me.  :o)

Today's card is made with more of items I stamped and used from Norma's stash.  The embossing folder, the punches and the stamps used on this card are from her!  THANKS NORMA!
 I used Brocade Blue as the base for this card, and then a layer of Pumpkin Pie, Very Vanilla and accents in Pumpkin Pie. 
 I used a direct to paper technique to accent the embossed edges of the paper.

 I popped the sentiment up with dimensionals
 added pearls into the circles formed by the embossing folder
 used double layers of the butterflies for added dimension
 and ran the top layer of each butterfly through an embossing folder for added texture.
Here is one final look at the card.

Thanks for looking!
