It's All About the Butterfly!
Butterflies, butterflies...it's so funny, but I really never liked to decorate with them. But, THEN, awhile back all this wonderful butterfly stuff started appearing for papercrafts. I was sold! I saw that this month's issue over at Paper Issues is Birds, Bees, and Butterflies. So, I decided to pull out the Martha Stewart border punch I've had, but haven't used yet. (Remember, I am trying to use things I've had for awhile!) Then I remembered this cutie image and this card was born.
I used a Spellbinder die to cut the frame. The layered butterfly is two MS punches and some old glittered butterflies I picked up at Michaels a couple of years ago (yep, using those old things).
Hope you're looking forward to a great week...I'm looking forward to Lauren coming to visit, so this will be a great week for me!
