Butterflies 3

I got a lot of pleasure from making this card and I really hope the recipient likes it. The card was made as a Thank You Card to some friend shared their Easter with us.

The butterfly decoupage was from Papermania, the foil was from Debbie Moore.

I embossed the top and bottom of the card with a border from cuttlebug and coloured this using my promarkers pens. The decoupage was enhanced with some glitter glue and then a glaze was painted on top.

The foil vellum was stuck to the card by double sided tape, at the top and along where the decoupage sits. The top of the vellum was then covered with a strip of paper to hide the double sided tape.

Gem stones were then added to the borders along with a peel-off butterfly.

These cards were made from old scraps of paper that I had stashed around the house in the hope of using them one day. I used black card stock to make the base cards and the card below also had a piece of interfacing attached to the card to soften the words , thus ensuring that they don't dominate the card. All the butterflies have had 3D dimension glazed painted on them.
