Life...

Today's card is a bit different from what I normally do - there is not a single Copic used but I wanted to show you a fabulous cutting and embossing folder I got from Bizzy Bec's store.  I've been hunting for this particular folder for awhile now so when Bec had them on pre-order, I made sure I spoke for one.  This is a Marianne Designables #DS0912 and it is so simple to do up an elegant, quick card and there's enough room in the middle for any sentiment.


I used a navy card stock for the matte and plain white card stock to emboss and cut.  The butterflies are a Martha Stewart border punch I have.  The sentiment is one from Whimsy Stamp's Time Flies Sentiment Set.  I don't see it in Bec's store right now but I know she can order it if you want one.
