Isabella Birthday

I made this card for the CAS on Friday Sketch challenge using some pretty BoBunny papers.  For my first attempt at this sketch I used several different papers but I felt it was too fussy and un-CAS, so I opted to make it in just two colours - grey and pink.

To make this card I used:
     6" x 6" white matt card blank
     Creative Expressions 'Pierced Tags', Spellbinders Nestabilities 'Standard Circles Large, My Favorite Things 'Fishtail Flags' and Creative Expressions 'Finishing Touches - Dainty Butterflies' dies
     Clearly Besotted 'Modern Calligraphy' stamp and coordinating die
     Versafine Smokey Grey ink
     Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
     Snippets of white matt card and BoBunny 'Isabella' papers

I attached a snippet of grey flower paper to a snippet of white card and die cut the largest label.  I then attached more snippets of the same grey paper to white card and die cut two fishtail flags - cutting them in two sections so I could make then the right length.  The fishtail flags were attached across the bottom of the card.  I attached the label to the left side of the flags, using foam pads at the top so it lay flat on the card.  I  attached pink paper to another snippet of white card and die cut the circle and embossed around the edge, this was attached on top of the label.  I used grey ink to stamp the sentiment onto a snippet of white card before using the coordinating die to cut 'happy' and trimming around 'birthday'.  These were attached to the pink circle.  To finish I die cut a small butterfly from another snippet of grey paper and attached it above the sentiment.

I am entering the following challenges:
     A Cut Above - Anything Goes with a Die Cut
     CAS on Friday - Sketch Challenge
