Less is More - Week 8 - Sketch

This is an odd one for me as I don't usually make cards other than A5 which my customers like. Its our 43rd Wedding Anniversary on Tuesday so I used the opportunity to make the card for my husband Robin. He loves butterflies and at one time (in his youth) used to collect them but now he prefers to see them flying. We have two different varities of Swallowtails in our garden so when I found this little topper it was just the job. The topper come from a booklet from Crafty Individuals - Miniatures - Flowers and Butterflies. I mounted it onto a chipboard "inchie" The bottom paper I made on the computer in Publisher. The font is Tabitha. I added a couple of little jewels where the swallowtails "eyes" are. Hope you like it. Just a quick note to say "Thank you" for the Anniversary wishes. What a lovely group of peeps you all are. http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/
