So now onto my little card. I have used some great stamps from the Marianne D range as I seem to always be reaching for the dies and wanted to change it up a bit. This is what the whole set looks like and it is just £9.99!!!

I don't know about you but I LOVE flutterby's so as soon as I saw this stunning set I just had to have them lol. You can get the whole set from HERE at Cuddly Buddly.
The card as you can see I have kept really simple just the butterfly in the center and I have curved its wings a bit so it looks more 3d and added a gem. The paper that I stamped the butterfly onto is also Marianne D, from Eline's Merry Little Christmas pack also available at Cuddly Buddly HERE. I have mounted the buterfly on blue card stock and the gold frame is a a spellbinder nestie. The background I have stamped with a peacock feather stamp I found in my collection in a couple of colours then I have inked all the edges and added more bling to finish it. Well the current Marianne's Design Divas challenge is sparkle after all.
