Anniversary Wishes

Here is another anniversary card I made this morning for a customer order.

This is a very simple card I have made by printing the sentiment directly onto the 6x6 card blank, adding the Marianne offset circle frame and butterfly, and some pale blue gems. I first left it without the butterfly...

...but I felt something was missing.

I am entering this into the following challenges today:
Flutterby Wednesday's - Open
Charisma Cardz - Weddings/Anniversaries
Less Is More - OLC Sentiment Focus

I'm really hoping this qualifies for the LIM challenge...I'm a little concerned it won't be seen as 'One Layer', but lots of other cards have paper embellishments etc so I'm hoping it will pass muster!

Anyway, I love the card and that's all that matters! :D

    This is beautiful Lizy and most acceptable, to me!
    The rule is not to have too much embellishment. And if they serve a purpose then its fine. ie not just in the corners!
    Love with or without the butterfly
    Sure your customer was thrilled

    This is fabulous Lizy and I much prefer it with the butterfly embellishment! That is one fab embossing folder!
    Keep up the good work.
