I am in love with Butterflies

I have always enjoyed butterflies...they flutter so gracefully and creates happiness when they are around. I have been on a butterfly kick and I wanted to share some cards with you in the next few days.

I love the rugged look of this card. The beautiful Parker's Pattern DSP really makes the butterflies pop!

Here is what I did:

I placed a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock in the Scallop Square Bigz Clear and ran it through the Big Shot

I also took a piece of 4 x 5 1/4" Whisper White cardstock and placed it in the Woodgrain TIEF. That went through the Big Shot TOO! (My favorite product from SU!)

I placed a 2 x 5 1/4" piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock in the heart Adorning Accent Folder. You guessed it, I ran it through the Big Shot!

I cut Marina Mist at 2 5/8 x 2 5/8"

Punched out 4 - 1 1/4" squares

I punch 3 Elegant Butterflies fro the Parker's Pattern DSP

I punch 3 Bitty Butterflies from Cherry Cobbler, Not Quite Navy, and Early Espresso

On the last 1 1/4" square I stamped "Thank you" from Blooming with Kindness stamp set

I adhered everything together. The base is Whisper White.

When adding the butterflies, I popped them up with Dimensionals, I put the bitty butterflies on with glue dots, and I add Basic Rhinestone Jewels as a finishing touch to the top of each butterfly.
