Today I have made a one layer card by first stamping and heat embossing my image directly onto the base card.  I then coloured it using chalk, pencil and a touch of glitter glue.  I then added a sentiment and tied an organza ribbon along the fold.  Finally I added a butterfly charm that I made with friendly plastic.  Do you remember friendly plastic?  I don't think anyone uses it these days and not sure if you can still buy it.  I am pleased with how this one came out considering I was just playing around with a new stamp.  Hope you like it, thanks for looking.
