I think that this weekend my mind was on butterflies subconsciously. It seems that both my cards have butterflies as part of the card!
Today's card is a bit more mainstream.
I started out with a lavender/lilac card base (Bazzill of course). I layered coordinating patterned papers from K&Company. The center section is a layer (1 inch) of brown patterned paper and then a K&Company border that has glitter on it. I added the word IMAGINE to the bottom. (I have had these acrylic words for a while and have been trying to find ways of using them.)
I love Stardream papers. They shimmer and glisten and come in lots of colors. My butterflies are made out of lilac and pink stardream paper. I punched out the butterfly design in each colors. I placed the dark lilac as the base and glued the center of the pink butterfly to the lilac center. I let this dry and then glued the lilac wings down to my card (I didnt put glue in the center, just the wings. This way I didnt have to worry about glue showing.) I added a lilac jewel to the center of each butterfly.
Close Up!
I did try to place the jewel toward the top of the butterfly and not exactly in the middle.
I hope that you liked this card! If you did, leave a comment!
Thanks for your time and come back soon!
