Fancy Cattails & Butterflies Card - CottageCutz

Happy Monday everyone!

Today I have a card using a new die from CottageCutz called Fancy Cattails & Butterflies.  Such a pretty little summer scene this is!





I cut out the die using Certainly Celery, then a piece of Real Red for the flowers that I cut and glued to it.  The butterflies and cattails were cut with Solar White, colored with chalk inks and glued the main piece.  This piece was glued to a white mat embossed with Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder that was matted with Real Red.

The white card base is matted with designer papers from Nana's Kitchen by DCWV.  I then added some red ribbon and bow, adhesive pearls and White Opal Liquid Pearls for the flower centers.

Here is a picture of the die I used:
