Make My Monday challenge 8

Over on the MMM blog they are still on a vintage theme but this week they are asking for lace and pearls and there are some great DT cards for inspiration if you take a look.  I've used background paper with pearl buttons, a Cuttlebug button strip embossing folder and some lace which was white so I coloured it to match the rest of the card. The image is from Crafty Individuals and I've popped it into a frame made using a Nestie with a Nellies die. The larger die cut shape (courtesy of my friend Anne - thanks) is a top note die from Stampin Up (by Sizzix) and it has been overstamped using Stampin Up Strength and Hope set which is where the butterfly came from too and I just added a few matching pearls to complete the card.

    Another beautiful vintage card Val. Those button look almost real down the side, I had to look twice.
