Congratulations

Gosh, March is certainly a busy month, 

what with birthdays and engagements etc.,

and it isn't the end of the month yet!

 #1 son recently announced his engagement 

so I put my thinking cap on and created this ...

I used the same die cut and embossing folder as a couple of posts ago

 mounting it on foam tape to give it some height with the glitter card behind.

I cut the couple from black card along with congratulations

and glued them into place.

The card looked a little bare on the top, so to give it some balance

and another splash of colour, I die cut some butterflies from the glitter card.

I was reasonably happy with how it turned out, although my DH thought the couple were too dark.  I'm not sure what other colour would have worked and as I was running out of time, 

I left it as you see it.
