Pretty in Lilac - a 21st birthday card


A sweet friends commissioned me to make a 21st Birthday card, and I was given carte blanche in the design.  This was a great opportunity to try out my new wreath diecut:
I used digital background paper matted onto lilac shimmer paper as my base.

I added the lilac shimmer paper for the diecut and added diecut and punched flowers and sewn on sequins and seed beads.

There are also some gems, a satin ribbon bow and a metal key charm.  The butterfly is a diecut.

The 21 is a peel off, and the sentiment a digital with a flower embellishment, similar to those on the wreath.

She is coming to collect it this morning - I hope she likes this multi-layer card.
