I took my inspiration from the white on white colour theme and the dimension and texture of the flowers. I used a single butterfly instead of the flowers and layered it on a Cuttlebug embossed piece of cardstock. I stamped the butterfly onto vellum and heat embossed it using off-white embossing powder.(sorry, I don't know the brand - it was an unmounted stamp from eBay, if anyone knows please let me know!) The greeting is a little hard to see in the photo, but it says 'Birthday wishes' from the Stampin' Up 'Sincere Salutations' set, I also heat embossed it. I've added ribbons, lace, tiny pearls and a little glitter around the edges of the cardstock.
I had a hard time capturing the true colour of my card, but the cardstock and ribbons/lace are all off-white.
Close-up photo is below.
This is my first time playing at Moxie Fab World, I think I will be playing there often. It's also my first new card for 2011, hope you like it!

Talk about absolutley lovely in every way! You hit it right on the elegant nose!!
WOW!!! Lyn, this is so gorgeous!! Such an elegant design and gorgeous take on the challenge!! TFS!HUGS
Just so elegant!
as much as I love colour I do adore white/white too. Your card is fabulous Lyn; and I especially love that lacy butterfly. I didn't know you could heat-emboss on vellum...I always thought it might crinkle up. Lesson learnt! Thanks for sharing your great card.
Gorgeous cake, fabulous card! I am really starting to love white on white!
This is so pretty! I love the trim you used, and that butterfly is fabulous!! Great job with the Winter White Tuesday Trigger! ♥♥♥
This is just stunning Lyn! Absolutely beautiful!
