Butterflies card

 More pink again.......but with a bit
of blue  this time too!
It's week 51 over at 'Less is More'
 & the theme is.......
                   CUT IT OUT
I used a butterfly die ( provocraft)
& cut an aperture in some blue card
I had printed ( wishy washy watermark
pattern on it).After edging the panel
with distress ink, I 3d'd it to the main
card. I used a couple of stamps,
a wording one and a swirl and embossed
behind the butterfly aperture. Then I
added some distress ink ( spun sugar)on
top of the stamping. I added some tiny
punched butterflies , which where also
coloured with ink and stamped in blue
in places.I added some clear gems to
complete it.Hmmm now not sure if we
had to make the aperture in the actual
card itself ??
Just to add I am so thrilled to be chosen
again to be in this week's showcase over
at Less is More.Thankyou so much C&M
you made my day yet again :O)
My new grandson is now much better too
I can report. After some jaudice and feeding
problems he is looking much better.Can't
wait for my next cuddles now.
