This is a wonderful free image from Deary Dolls Stamps. I used the full image on the inside of the card in the book frame and fussy cut the mouse couple out and glued onto a free image from the web of the book cover. I used some gold ribbon and tied a bow and made a flower out of vellum paper dampened and crumpled up and the petal circles put together with a fluer de lis brad. I colored the images with Promarkers and stamped the thanks sentiment, fluer de lis's, and texture stamp with gold ink. I stamped three butterflies with black ink and colored them with markers and them inked over them, adding wire antenna and gold gel pen accents. I punched three deep red shiny hearts and doodles one of them with my gold gel pen and I accented parts of the images with it. The book part of the card is from a tutorial on YouTube that basically consists of accordian folding four pieces of cardstock and fitting them like a picture frame. I used the specialty edge scissors to cute the front fold and inked with black. I thought this was a movie from the Good Ole Days movie stars; hope you enjoy!
