WOW take 2!

Hi LIMettes!
Well this Monday morning is very bright, if a little breezy so I think I will take Keiran to Queen's Park in Bolton this afternoon......after I've made a couple of cards ;)

I am able to blog again thanks to the wonderful Jen for lending me her Netbook! So with that in mind, I woke up this morning with an idea for another WOW card for the challenge at Less Is More......

I hope the pictures show all the detail.......I cut out the largest of Nesties Labels 16, embossed it with Sizzix Flowers, Stars & Swirls folder and added the 3 Joy butterflies, embellished with a few pearls and gems. I used the de-bossed side of the panel as I felt the embossed side took the glory away from the butterflies. I added tiny nail art pearls (from Poundland!) to the dotted swirls to add some colour and texture difference.

I hope all those pearls don't make it too 'more' and less 'less'!
