Spread Your Wings

This card was made for a colleague taking early retirement. She plans to spend a lot of time travelling in the US, and so the sentiment 'time to spread your wings' seemed appropriate. This then made me think of butterflies. The card is 5x7 inches. The brown patterned paper is Stampin Up, the butterflies were cut and embossed in blue card with my new Cuttlebug dies and i then sponged some ink over them. The blue card has a slight shine to it. The sentiment was generated on the PC, but looked a little 'clean' so I sponged some ink over that too. I may have overdone the ink! Eyelets and some ribbon finished it off. I may make this one again, altering the sentiment so it is for a birthday.
