Jen's birthday

I had lots of fun with my Cricut making this card. When I get time I sit and play so that I can learn what I can do and how things turn out. It is fun and you always end up with something very pretty.

 I used Elegant Edges "flower 3" cartridge to cut out the frame in a patterned paper. A piece of red lightly patterned paper was cut in a circle to go behind the frame. A piece of lace was placed behind the frame but centered in it

 For the pretty filigree in the middle of the card I used Cindy Loo cartirdge- figure 1.This was cut out of cream card stock. I cut out some butterflies using the background and frame papers. The butterflies cut out of the red patterned paper were embossed  in silver and placed on the bigger butterflies to give the card some depth.
Bling was placed on the filigree . Asentiment was placed on a piece of matching card with a piece of lace laid under it but showing on the bottom edge.
