PP38 Strength and Hope Sneak Peek

Hi Stampers! 
I wanted to create a quick easy card for The Paper Players PP38 Ann’s Color Choice Challenge- see http://thepaperplayers.blogspot.com for the great Design Team projects and all of the other inspirational entries! 
I also wanted to give you a sneak peek of the new MDS stamp brush set, Strength and Hope (I love the images in this set!) 
To create this card:
Print the butterfly image and background script stamp on Very Vanilla cardstock.  Color the butterfly with a SU! Baja Breeze marker, trim and sponge Early Espresso along the edges and mount onto Early Espresso cardstock.  Apply 2-Way Glue and Dazzling Diamonds to the butterfly (it is hard to capture on film but the butterfly appears to have gossamer wings).
Use the Big Shot with the Finial Press EF and emboss a piece of Blushing Bride cardstock.  Sponge lightly with Early Espresso ink (also sponge the edges of the script background piece).

Create a bow with 5/8” Early Espresso Satin Ribbon and finish off the card.    
Stamp Sets: Strength and Hope Brush Set (MDS)
 Ink:  SU! Markers-Baja Breeze, Classic Ink
Cardstock: Blushing Bride, Early Espresso, Very Vanilla
Accessories:  Big Shot, Finial Press EF, Sponge Daubers, Dazzling Diamonds, 5/8” Early Espresso Satin Ribbon
Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you have a great weekend!

    Thanks Lesley! I had to make it within an hour or so and I could not incorporate as many details as I normally would like to include, but it is very "sparkly" in real life:-)
