Butterfly Gala Ornament

Cards
Comments

So here’s something different – a butterfly ornament! This was easy to do. You need a craft style ornament, an old book or light weight paper, Mod Podge, and a butterfly punched from the Saleabration paper, Botanical Butterfly. Tear the book pages into small -ish strips and dip them into the Mod Podge. Cove the ornament with them, smoothing as you go. Get your butterfly covered with Mod Podge and adhere it to the ornament. Let dry. I went around the edge of the butterfly with Stickles to make sure the edges stayed put. Add a ribbon and display or gift! Hugs, Fran

Here we go with a trio of cards simply creaTed because I cut way too many butterflies.  I watercolored a piece of watercolor paper with Peekaboo Peach, Melon Mambo and Pink Pirouette and then die cut some butterflies using the Butterfly Thinlits.  With the leftover piece I used the Elegant Butterfly and Bitty Butterfly punches to punch the rest.  This gave me a lot of butterflies!

Using Gorgeous Grunge and Suite Sentiments, I created 3 background pieces and placed all the butterflies around the sentiment.

That’s a little strip of Glimmer paper down the left side – hard to see in the photograph!  So now there are 3 cards – similar but different.  Hugs, Fran
