I again used the double sided designer paper that I purchased at Paper wishes...
It's called Charming.

The rose that I added was from KaiserCraft
I die cut the lace panel using a die from Our Daily Bread designs (Beautiful Borders)
My sentiment was stamped using a stamp from Penny Black

Center step card

This is sort of a mystery card.  The UNKNOWN image is one that my husband colored with copics many years ago, and I finally got around to making a card using it.

I don't know if the image was rubber stamped or if it was a digital image.
One of the reasons it probably took me so long is the fact that the image has a lot going on, and I did Not want to take away from the image by adding too much else on the card. 
...Thus the black background!
  Jim liked what I did with the image and that is what was most important to me.

I'm grateful that I managed to get another one of Jim's big box of colored images done...
Many more to go...

I cased my own cards...

Yes,  I decided to try and case some of my own cards...
So you may remember seeing me post  cards similar to these  two before.
I did try and change them up a bit.

Made this card using papers from Paper Wishes.  I added some dimensionals to pop up my center image and some stickles.

I used the instructions from here to make the Center fold card.

I also used paper from Paper wishes for this card.  I used some dies from Stampin' Up  to make the button embellishments.  My hubby colored the butterfly for me with copics.  My "Hello" greeting was cut using a die from Elizabeth craft designs.
