Antique Butterflies

Another card today using the Craftwork Cards Antiquites Collection - more of a distressed feel for this one.  You can find more cards from this collection HERE.


I have used three of the papers and distressed and inked the edges.  I also fussy cut some of the butterflies so that I could layer them up to create some dimension.


The sentiment is also from Craftwork cards, the twine is from my stash.


Thank you for popping in today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Love the way you have used the twine and as I have just comment on another blog and said "I am rubbish with ribbon, but even worse with twine" this can apply to your card too, so respect, for your use of the twine.
Super design too.
