This is not a digi card...

I know, you were expecting a digital image, weren't you! ;)  Well, my blog candy is still up for grabs, and I'll have a digi card for you here in just a bit.  BUT FIRST--I have a "real" card! ;)  Just kidding--this is just a card I made using rubber stamps!

Here it is~

Details~




For these fabulous challenges~




I made my designer paper by taking a piece of Pink Paisley paper, adding a bunch of stamped Regal Rose butterflies, and sponging the edges.  I used my Spellbinders scallop circle dies along with my SU! butterfly embosslit--sorry that I can't remember the name of it right now!  A bunch of bling and a few hat pins, and voila!

What do you think?  I think it's pretty...but I may be entering into these challenges again as I'm not 100% happy with it.

I hope that you are having a fabulous day!  Thanks for stopping by and saying hi!  Happy stamping! :)

This is gorgeous, with such attention to detail. Love the addition of the pins. You should enter this in the Just Add Ink challenge too, which is to just add pearls. Thanks for playing along at Dynamic Duos.
