I really enjoy using the quality tools from Stampin' Up!. Any job is easier if you have the right tools. That is especially true even with paper crafting. This card appears simple however I pulled out all the BIG paper cutting tools for this one. The circle was created with the CIRCLE SCISSORS PLUS cutting tool. The flower and butterfly were die cut using the BIG SHOT and the Melon Mambo strip was cut on the PAPER CUTTER. It is a simple card with a little different twist . . . it is round. The flower and butterfly are free swinging to give some movement.
