Happy Saturday, we are dry here in N CA for now but it is moving in, I can feel it in my bones, lol.  I received two new toys this week, one is the wonderful embossing element from Amy Chomas and the other is the Imagine "Bloom" cart.  The background paper for this card was printed using the "Bloom" cart, I then embossed on a piece of velum and layered it on top of the background paper, it gives this fantastic paper a little bit of a misty feel.  I then took a 3"x3" square cut it on the diagonal and positioned it in the upper right hand corners.  On the left side I used a 1"X6" panel.  I punch butterflies from the MS butterfly punch and then added rose gold metal photo corners.  I really like the contrast of the misty velum and the card stock on top. I punched the word block with a StampinUp punch and "Tweets" was computer generated.
I am submitting this for the Cricut Circle Blog Challenge this week, "All about Feathers".  Hope everyone has a great weekend. Hugs
