Hello my crafty friends! Today I'm sharing a pair of Slimline Birthday Cards that started out with this cherry blossom patterned paper. I have had it for several years - it came in a package of other prints that I just LOVE, but this one? Not so much. I thought I'd see if I liked it better on a Slimline card, but ... nope. Still not a fan.
The scalloped rectangle frame was cut twice - once from vellum and once from pink mirror cardstock. Then I alternated the pieces on each card. The white embossed butterflies were coloured with the coordinating layering stencils and I added die cut words with their shadows. Oh, and I did add a little detailing to the butterflies with alcohol markers. The words were cut from the same pink mirror cardstock.
Since the frames were popped up with thin foam tape, I nestled some coordinating bling around the different elements. So the cards are nice and sparkly at least!
Below are pictures of the inside of both cards, with a little stencilling, stamping and a punched butterfly. I also added another layer of the cherry blossom paper as I figured I'd use as much as I could on these two cards.
