Well it's a beautiful day here on the South Coast, much better than yesterday which was very windy, dark, gloomy and grim!!!! Anyway, thought I would post my make from my Butterfly Wishes Kit from Hunkydory to brighten up the days.

Ingredients: Adorable scorable
Butterfly wishes kit
Tonic Die
Tonic Butterfly punch
Pink chiffon ribbon
Cosmic shimmer glue
Dimensional squares
Stickles crystal glue
Scoreboard
Paper trimmer
Method: I used A4 Adorable Scorable card which I trimmed and scored to create a gate fold card. I then used a Tonic Butterfly die to create the design on the front of the card. The die produces a beautiful open lattice work design which is cut in two halves, on each side of the opening. The Butterflies are part cut from the card and so it is possible to lift the wings for dimension. I used decoupage pieces from the main topper (used on the inside) and attached them to the front of the card, with dimensional stickers. I punched six butterflies out of paper from the kit in pale pink polka dot and pale blue polka dots, these were assembled into pairs, lifting the top layer wings and then adding Stickles glue to the bodies of the butterflies, providing a little bit of sparkle. Cosmic Shimmer glue was used to attach them to the card. The inside section of the card was backed with the paper from the kit which co-ordinates with the set of the butterflies on the front. The topper was applied with dimensional stickers, including a layer of decoupage and finally the sentiment was added and the ribbon threaded through the lattice - and 'ta dah' - a lovely Hunkydory Card that I am very proud of. Another variation to this is to emboss the card before scoring and die cutting.
Off to make some Easter boxes now; be back soon with some makes, take care and thanks for dropping by :) x
