I started with peach envelope and created an off white card to fit in it. I had a used card sitting on my desk that I was inspired to use. I featured this large die cut opening of a butterfly. The original card had a string of butterflies mounted in the opening which I removed and strung onto my patio screen and I have enjoyed it for several years there especially in the summer when the breeze was blowing. I decided to trim one of the large butterflies from the string to use on this card. I trimmed the panel to fit on my card, added a ribbon across the top and a little laser printed punchie greeting (SU) which I watercolour to coordinate. I watercoloured the card front in blue to create a background for my butterfly and embossed with D'vine Swirl (CB) embossing folder. Unfortunately, I was not paying enough attention and it also embossed the outside edge. I did run a bone folder over the embossing in an effort to remove it. It worked a bit but I liked this card enough to just forge ahead and make it happen. I glued my large panel to my embellished card front. I glued the string to the back and added 3D foam tape before positioning it in the opening over the embossed space. Love it!! I added dots of pink glitter glue to coordinate with the antennae and set it aside to dry. I am really pleased with how it turned out!!!!!!!!! Therese
