Just Because . . .

I needed a card for my Brother-In-Law and his new wife.  They had gotten married in June and are have the reception and new home over the weekend.

I used the medallion stamp on the outside of the envelope.  I just love this stamp.



I used the medallion stamp on the front of the card then layered the punched and die cut shapes on the front of the card.  Everything is inked with Basic Black.  I added a bit of sheer ribbon from my stash.  I don't have the butterfly punch so I fussy cut around the butterfly.

I used the flat back pearls in the center of the butterfly and only glued the center part down and left the wings free.

I added another butterfly on the opposite side of where I'll put my message. 

I really like how this card turned out.
