CARD FOR MY MUM

My mum will be 79 this month and i didn't want to make her a card that was too cutie but i did still want pretty, so this is what i came up with, i do hope it's ok.
I used the side step design which is easier than it looks.
the papers are My Minds Eye, yes again! lol
the vellum butterflies were punched with a x-cut dimentions punch and i added a beautiful sparkly bindi. i bought these on that auction site, they came in a plastic container with 20 tiny pots inside, perfect for all my gems and brads etc, i've ended up buying 3 so far. lol
back to the card...
I used the birthday embossing folder from cuttlebug and the beautiful swirls were sent to me by a friend over on DoCrafts.
the letters were cut using Broadway Melody sizzix alphabet dies.
finally i added a ribbon from my stash.

the vellum butterfly with bindi bling.
