Lace Doily Thinking of You Greeting Card

Hello All!
Today the card I'm sharing uses to elements I haven't used from my paper crafting toys.  The Lace Doily Die and the Butterfly Embosslits Die.

 
I got the idea for this card after a play date with my friend Norma.  She inspired me!  I do have to admit that using the Lace Doily die was very frustrating.  I cut the doily 4 times to finally get the die to cut all the pieces through.  The combination that finally worked was 4 pieces of cardstock under the cutting mats.
 
 The doily and the cardstock with the sentiment on it are Purely Pomegranate the dots and stripes are from an old DSP series.
 I used 1/4" Whisper White ribbon, pearls, the three smallest butterflies from the die, and an embossing folder for the details of the card.

 Here is a close up of the bottom of the card.  The sentiment is from Trendy Trees, and is stamped in Basic Black.
Here is one final look at the card.

Thanks for stopping!
