This is a card for some special. As with a lot of my parchment cards, it is quite an easy card to make although just takes quite a long time compared to other cards.
The envelope, note, butterflies and yellow flowers have all been 3D onto the card. I first traced the design onto the parchment paper and embossed the flowers and leaves. For the centre of the flowers I used Pergamano Pintura Paint in yellow to highlight. I then made a small envelope and notelet and embossed "For You" on it. I then attached these to the card. I then coloured a piece of parchment paper yellow and cut out the butterflies and lightly embossed them. Then with a flower punch (which I found when cleaning out my craft room), I punched out some flowers with the same coloured parchment and added them with the butterflies to finish the card.
Although as yet I have not put an insert into this card, when I do I will ensure that insert has the top right and bottom left corners cut off so that it does not show under the cutaway section.
Absolutely stunning Elaine, love it.
