This confection is for a sweet little girl with a butterfly-themed nursery. As soon as I saw this paisley ribbon at Hobby Lobby, I knew it was perfect for her pink and green room. I was still stuck on the topper until a few days ago when she came two weeks early -- uh oh! Then I found a cute monogram coat hanger on Michael's "fabulous finds" aisle with her initial.

I had so much fun making such a girly project! It made me fall in love with the Perfectly Paisley embossing folder that had been sitting unopened in my Cuttlebug bin for far too long...now I want to use it on everything!
