Printed on matte photo paper, then attached the topper, the insert, and the card back to a card with dst.
I cut out and glued one of the large quatrefoil ornaments to the center of the inside left page.
Added the front panel (with the butterflies) with foam tape for dimension, also the sentiment, then cut out three quatrefoil ornaments and numerous items from the second panel (ie., the bird, large rose, bow and nearby lilies-of-the-valley, butterflies and a few individual lilies-of-the-valley), shaped them slightly when appropriate, and added them with PinFlair glue.
Finished by spritzing, mainly the corners and edges, with brown and soft blue inks. A true keepsake card, and so beautifully embellished with the lovely insert and card back.
