Cream on Cream

With so many wonderful embossing folders and an ever increasing amount of elaborate dies becoming available - very tempting I must say but where do you start?? (or stop!!) - I thought I'd have a go at a card in the style which is becoming popular but using what I have.  Base layer is a piece of embossed pearlescent card, next is a panel cut with a Marianne die/embossing folder combined and a punched strip was added top and bottom.  Sadly I couldn't use a more lacy punch because it wouldn't cut through the card.  The sentiment is on a couple of Spellbinder die cut shapes and two Marianne butterflies were added .  Not my usual style but I think it works - just wish my really pretty lacy punches would go through card!!  I might need to look out for a nice lacy die instead.
