USE IT!!!!

Today's card actually started with the INSIDE:

I purchased a die that made this pop-up "Thinking of You" panel (Thinking of You Pop-Up Sentiments by Tonic Studios) in March of 2017, and promptly die cut this panel from beautiful Mirri Board - and then never used it!  I found it in my stash today and decided it had been sitting there long enough!  I went looking for some patterned paper to go with it and found these scraps from scrapbook pages made in 2010!  I found the tag & butterfly that had adhesive on it but was sitting in my stash - so either I planned to use them but didn't, or I scavenged them from a card I received.  Either way, they've just been sitting in my stash for way too long!  I decided to put them all together to make this card.  

As you can see, on the inside I simply put strips of patterned paper on either side of the die cut panel - and added the butterfly.

I added a few more elements to the outside (top of post).  After adhering the striped paper to the bottom of the card front and adding the tag, I added a sticker greeting in the top right corner and sticker hearts in the bottom left.  I didn't think the lacy sticker hearts showed up well enough on this paper, so went looking through my stash and found these turquoise rhinestone hearts which I thought went very well.
