Wish upon a star ...

It's a wet and cold day here once again ... oh how I wish it were Spring ... I am so looking forward to seeing the fresh green buds on the trees ... but at least the daffodils are slowly pushing their way out of the ground,  the only indication so far that the season is changing ...
I have a couple of cards to post today ... the first one is for the new sketch challenge at WaltzingMouse ...


I've never done a star shaped card before so thought I'd give it a try ... using white CS and some MF papers ...



I also used a glittery star I had in my stash ... along with two different ribbons and a few other little embellishments 


The teenie tiny butterfly is from my digi files ... printed and cut and the sentiment also is computer generated ... the hardest part was the stitching! But I may try one of these again ... 

Back soon
