Tri-Fold Elements of Style

I have already made several cards using the Elements of Style set, but I just love it!  Pretty ... pretty ... pretty.  I started with a tri-fold card in shimmery white then sponged Brilliance Pearlescent Chocolate all over it for a "vintage" look. 

The flowers were stamped in StazOn Timber Brown.  I had planned to color in the flowers, but decided I liked them plain on this card.

The butterfly was stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock in Close to Cocoa, sponged with Blush Blossom and cut out.  I then added Dazzling Diamonds glitter around the edges using VersaMark and Heat & Stick Powder.

To finish the card, I tied a piece of 5/8" sheer chocolate ribbon to keep it closed.

I think with the right sentiment this would make a nice wedding card.

Card Recipe:
Stamps:  Elements of Style, All a Flutter, Sincere Salutations
Paper:  Shimmery White, Very Vanilla, Close to Cocoa, Blush Blossom
Ink:  StazOn Timber Brown, Close to Cocoa, Blush Blossom, VersaMark with Gold EP
Accessories:  5/8" Sheer Chocolate Ribbon, Nesties Labels Fourteen, Dazzling Diamonds, Heat & Stick Powder
