Butterfly Love

I was in love with the tag and butterflies used by Melissa and wanted to use those elements of her design for my card.  I wish the photo showed the resulting softness of adding the vellum makes the final creation.  I must say I am in love with Papertrey's new Linen Card stock (Fresh Snow).  It feels luxurious and the quality is incredible.  I have always liked and used vellum numerous times in my creations, but the new Papertrey Sheer Basics Vellum Pattern Pack is to die for.
