A closer look at each page:


Now for some details. I cut and embossed the butterflies with my Cuttlebug using three different embossing folders. Then I embossed with clear powder to make them stand out from the paper. I adhered them with glue dots and dimensionals to lift the wings off the pages. Half beads from the SU pretties kit make butterfly heads.



I love these corduroy buttons from SU and have them in about five colors now. These are actually brads - the best brads ever made, very sturdy. I added small silk flowers from the pretties kit just for flair. Title is Cuttlebug, circle and scalloped square punches are SU. In fact, this is mostly an SU project. PP, CS and rubons are all SU.

Beautiful!!! I love those butterflies. I have the same die and I would never have thought of embossing them with clear emboss powder after dry embossing them. Very cool!!!!
great multi photo page, and I'm cracking up over that cake!
Wow... this LO is stunning! I love the butterflies and have the same CB set... I am so lifting this idea from you!

Gorgeous - love those butterflies and the brads look neat.
Those butterflies are beautiful and I love those SU button brads too - although I obviously need to work on my stash as I only have one set!
Very pretty LO! I love how you made the butterflies stand out and I'm totally lifting that idea since I have the same CB folders! Thanks for the inspiration!
P.S. Forgot to say about the cake - LOVE it! So original! Did you make it?
