A dual challenge

The ladies at 2 popular challenges have teamed up this week with 1 challenge between them.    Here is the inspiration:


Looking at the photo, I saw all the gold and decided to make an anniversary card.


supplies: white cardstock, gold foil cardstock, vellum, Hero Arts Artist's Butterfly, embossed in gold, The Craft's Meow sentiment from Side by Side, also embossed in gold, Sizzix Vines embossing folder, gold sequins

I haven't used this lovely ornate butterfly in a very long time, and I love how it looks on vellum, so delicate.  I'll be entering this into both the CASE this Sketch challenge and the Fusion challenge.   Thanks for stopping by!

Lin, I love all the gold. I have that butterfly and never thought to use on vellum, that is so perfect. I love when someone shows me another way to use a stamp. Beautiful card, so eye catching.
