Focal Butterfly Card

Hi everyone@!  Can you believe that I'm publishing two cards in one week?  I've been so busy at work that I've just not ad any energy to make any cards.  I don't want you to think I am complaining though.  I love healthcare and I do love my job. (PS: I was so busy that I didn't get my taxes done until April 16th.  First time in 40 years - can you believe it?)

Anyway, on to today's card - It's a layered card with patterned paper and some foiled papers.

The first card I took with a flash (by accident). I almost deleted it but decided to use it anyway.

This is the card without the flash. (I like the first picture because you can really see how shiny the gold foil paper is.)

The patterned papers are a mix of different companies.  I just chose some that appealed to me.

Here is a side view so that you can see the dimensionality of this card.  I used double thickness of mounting tape on one of the layers.  The butterfly is from K&Co I believe. It was nice because it had an acetate layer on the wings.

 
Here is a not as great as I would like it picture f the layering. I used:

Silver Linen Card stock (12x12) from Hot Off the Press
A gold with random pattern in it under the fleur de lis papers.  It was from a small sample pack of specialty papers I got long ago.  Can you tell that I'm going through my too big stash?


Ok that's it for now.  I'm working on some other stamped and colored cards and will hopefully finished with them this week so that I can share them with you.

Have a good week~! Lis
