Cas-ual Fridays Stamp products used:
 
 
 
1.  To start the card I embossed in gold the Full on Floral stamp. 
2.  I then took a blending tool and covered the entire background.
3.  From the Be stamp set, I took the butterflies and embossed those gold.  I lightly blended some ink on those as well. 
4.  For the hope die, I heat embossed a patch of gold and then die cut from that heat embossed area. 
5.  I took a piece of ribbon and decided diagonal placement for the hope and butterflies. 
6.  After placing the hope I took the butterflies and lightly with a pen rounded the wings to make them lift off the card.
