for the VP!

had to put a little something special together for the VP of my bank, whose birthday dinner i'll be attending tomorrow night. didn't know where to go with it, but found some Glitz stamps on clearance at A.C. Moore, grabbed some of my pretty new papers (i do love me some BasicGrey), found a couple of challenges to get me revved up, and here we are!

didn't like the layers on their own, so i inked up a doily and thought it gave the card a more feminine touch - just what i needed! but then, what else? i loves me the dimension and extras, so a little pompom trim, some twine, the butterfly Bottlecap Inc. pretties, bling and a charm were in order:

and that, seriously, is all she wrote. i struggled more with writing the message inside the card than i did putting it together! and THANK YOU for the inspiration, from the following challenge sites:
Crafty Creations - "How Charming!"
Stampalot Challenge - BINGO! i have Turquoise, Polka Dots and Brown
Stampin' for the Weekend - Bugs and Butterflies (i don't have a stamped IMAGE, but the distressed lace on the back panel is stamped)

later, taters!
