 Are you surprised to see my butterfly card? Now you know I just love this stamp-I use it every week somewhere in my crafting.
This card was so easy to make using the die to make my base,
Stamped  and embossed the butterfly on parchment paper and card stock.Just used my Copics to color the backside of the parchment butterfly.
Can you see that I cut out the lattice die and then cut that die out with the scallop die. Each piece was matted.

 This paper is from a DCWV botanical set I have been hoarding- I mean saving.

 Can you see all the dimension? I love having cards where each piece looks realistic. Looks like those butterflies just paused  to take a rest on the card...lol

So won't you play along with our challenge this week? We always enjoy seeing the new faces and designs and you could be a winner.
