It's a new challenge over at
my Butterfly challenge with the theme of
The starting point for this card was
the backing which is actually the inside cover
from a Mother's Day Card which I had
received and was about to stash away
as I had thought it too pretty to discard.
Light bulb moment!
Would be perfect for this challenge.
The patchwork design just lent itself to having some
stitching added both down the side of the card and
on the doily.
Butterflies were cut from scraps of red card and gems
from my stash along with the pink crochet thread.
Doily is a shop bought one from my stash.
Sentiment is by Wow stamps.
The faux patchwork and the real stitching
I think work well together.

I may be able to find a doily, but I sure wouldn't try to sew on one. I'm impressed! This is lovely and I love the stitching!
This is really pretty, Mrs A.
I like the fluttering group of butterflies you created.
Sorry have not been by lately...can't seem to get a good routine going since the move!
