Throwback Thursday - Mixing New & Old

I went deep into my stash of Designer Papers and pulled out this beauty. So much coppery goodness going on here! The design was inspired by the TGIF Challenge #tgifc372.

The card base is Blushing Bride. The gorgeous coppery paper is Love You Always Specialty DSP (2021). The butterfly is cut from some Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper I've been hoarding. It's mounted on a circle of Vellum using Mini Glue dots. The sentiment is from Honey Bee (2020).

The lovely vertical stripes are a strip of washi tape.

The inside sentiment from Humming Along (2019) is stamped in Soft Suede ink.

I hope you're inspired to pull out some of your older stamping supplies and give them some more love!
