Another sympathy card from component cut from another card

Another sympathy card for my stash!!  For this one I cut two butterfly elements from a donated card and taped them together to create one element.  I added a length of white ribbon over where they join and layered it onto a purple cardstock layer.  Each piece had a butterfly sticking out of the main body of the element so I worked that into the design.  I layered the butterfly element onto a white card front which I manually embossed on the top and right hand side before adhering the large focal element to it on the lower left hand side.  I tied a short length of ribbon to the length on the butterfly element with one knot to simulate a knot.  I left it loosely tied to reduce the bulk of the knot.  I very lightly sponged a small laser printed punchie greeting (SU- Word Window Punch) and mounted it to the card front trying not to hide any of the flowers and butterflies.  Really like how this one came together and how it worked out!!
