This card was made almost entirely from my bits and pieces stash. The patterned paper and the die cut butterflies have been in there for a couple years; they were part of a little thank you gift for ordering some stamps. The die cut heart was also in the stash and the "thankful" was left over from Thanksgiving. I die cut 3 more out of cheap yellow card stock and layered them all together for dimension. I heat embossed the sentiment on a little scrap of black card stock with white embossing powder and added a few pink enamel dots. Quick and easy when it's all made out of scraps!
