Purple & White sewn card

So here's my second card that I sewed on. Ya know, it's pretty easy once you get over the fear of running paper through your sewing machine. I kept this card a little bit plainer than I normally do--hope it isn't too dull! I cut the flower out with George at 1", 1 1/4", and 1 1/2". The leaves are actually a flourish from Home Accents, but I think it makes great leaves! I threw some of those same flourishes in the corners too, but cut off the ends. And of course my ever present Martha Stewart butterflies (I always end up sticking them in spots that seem boring)! A few dewdrops and some ribbon finish it off. Pretty easy layout--I think I'll try it with pattern paper next and see what I come up with. Thanks for taking a peek!
