Another commissioned card with the brief - butterflies, not too girly and a nickname (real name Louise!) - so I'm just hoping this will fit the bill. I used a colour theme of Elegant Eggplant (my all time favourite colour) and Whisper White. I began by doing the matting and layering and used a white DL card blank topped with Elegant Eggplant, then Whisper White and finished with Elegant Eggplant DSP from the Rich Regals Paper Stack. The letters are from the Letter It Alphabet set, stamped in Elegant Eggplant onto Whisper White and cut out. After glueing them in place I added a Basic Rhinestone between each letter, these letters do look great curved with a brad in between but on this occasion I wanted them to be flat. The sentiment is from a SAB set and punched with the Curly label punch, inked around the edge and matted onto an Elegant Eggplant Decorative Label. The butterflies are, of course, from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits die in Elegant Eggplant and Whisper White with a Basic Rhinestone in the centre.
