Serendipity Bird Frame, Sympathy, Butterflies

I've had some Mulberry paper in my stash for a while now, and decided to try and use it for another 'window' card over at the Poppystamps Challenge.  After all, I've got plenty of 'left overs' from my other two window designs.

Here's the inside of the card...




...  and the outside...




The Serendipity Bird Frame and the Oval Frame (Poppystamps) are new to my collection this week.  I've used them as the main focus of this card, along with the Bird on a Pussywillow Branch (Frantic Stamper), leaves from Meadow Leaf (Poppystamps) and butterflies from Blissful Butterfly Border (Memory Box), Peaceful Butterfly Wings (Memory Box) and Pop Up Butterfly Punch (Martha Stewart).  Some of the butterflies have been embossed and rubbed with silver gilding wax.

This is in fact two small (9cm x 9cm) Kraft cards, glued together.  The backing paper is from Heartfelt Creations and is called 'Frosty Blanket'.

This is a very subdued colour palette.  If you have the time, please let me know what you think of it.

Hope you're having a good day :)
