Hello again :)
Hope this finds you well and happy :)
I made this card for my Dad's wife whose birthday was last week
The image was a freebie from
Crafts U Print
and I just used the butterfly square part of it. The freebie is a beautiful little envelope - totally adorable :)
So this is what I came up with......
Its very hard to know what to do for a card with Cheryl as she is not abled to be "labelled" so I gathered you cant go past a butterfly....
The black paper I used as a strip in the background had a scratchy texture to it, hard to pick up on camera - so I didnt want to cover it up too much. The butterfly has one layer for a bit of dimension. Added the flower sequins for a bit more femininity.
I could work out what to do with the corners as the card was too bear to leave them blank - so I used my trusty flower punch (its earnt its keep lately) and decided to use a couple of petals in each corner to add some colour and interest with the unusual shape... What do you think???
