Natural Composition

I recently purchased the new Natural Composition Specialty Designer Paper Series collection and went straight to the web to surf out some ideas. (No surprise.)  I ran across a card made by a fellow member of the TOPICS stamp group, Kirsteen Gill from Katy, Texas via Scotland.  She mentioned how beautifully this paper took to sponging and she had the cutest little rose bud on her card tucked behind a butterfly punched from my new favorite Elegant Butterfly Punch.  I had to give both a whirl.  As Harry Caray would say, “HOLY COW!”  Sponging this paper is amazing!!!!  Not a card to mail but definitely a stunning success!

Thanks to Kirsteen for her inspiration and rose tutorial.
