Tri Fold Card

 
Tri Fold Card

This is my first try at putting a picture on my blog and so far I have my fingers crossed that it will work.  The cardstock is more of a blue hued pink than it shows here.

The "Woodland Branch" die is from Memory Box and is cut from brown card stock.

The flowers on the branch were made with a McGill punch.  The centers were made with the punched out parts of the Martha Stewart Snowflake Punch around the Page punches.  I used white cardstock and colored the petals with the Color Box Pink stamp pad.  The stamens were colored with a Ranger Ink marker, Adirondack, Raisin, and a tiny pearl was placed in each center.

The center section was cut using the Stampin' Up Scallop Trim Border and Corner Punches.  The small flower was made by using two flowers of the McGill Medium Flower Punch cut out of white cardstock and colored with the Color Box Pink. 

The large butterfly on the right is made with the Memory Box Vivienne and Darla Dies. The flourish is by the same company, I believe, but I can't find it on Joan's Garden site now and I think I misplaced the covers when I took the dies out of the packets and put them in a CD box with a magnet to hold them.  I appologize to whichever company made it as I didn't think I'd be doing this sort of thing at the time.  All of my dies, other than the Stampin' Up dies come from Joan's Garden.

The small butterflies are from Cheery Lynn Dies and the Happy Birthday was printed from my computer and cut out with the oval punch from Stampin' Up.
