For this week's challenge I made a boxed envelope using the sketch. I needed a box to present a DVD to my niece who just got married last week. In addition to the DVD of her wedding I have also included several pictures! We all had so much fun last weekend. She had given me this Prisma butterfly, that she wanted as a centerpiece. The colors of her wedding were also seafoam green, brown and beige with some accents of blue. Thus the inspiration papers from Basic Grey. As my papers were limited I varyed my papers with dry embossing.

The pattern for my envelope is from Priscillastyles store. It is well worth purchasing! I have used that envelope pattern multiple times! They are so easy to use, and you will never buy an envelope again.

Magical Crafts - Flowers

Other Lovelies - Flowers

Fresh Brewed Coffee - Anything Goes

Allsorts - Embossing

Caardvarks - Embossing

Your shading over the top really makes your card along with that wonderful butterfly and exceptional take on the sketch. Sorry it took me awhile to stop in at your blog. Thank you for always making such awesome cards. I always look forward to seeing what will be created week after week. From my family to yours I would like to wish you a great 4th of July.
