Hello, everyone! Today I'm sharing a butterfly card for the holidays! I wanted to join Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge 164 - Spin the Butterfly Wheel with W for Windmill-style Card! I am in full holiday cardmaking mode so here is the result!
I was eager to try Mrs. A's windmill-style card following her tutorial. I'm not good at following directions so, as usual, I had some trouble, but in the end it worked out. My small squares are only one inch because I wanted to use my Marvy Uchida punch, so I had to adjust the other measurements accordingly. I like how it turned out!
The sentiment stamp is from Penny Black, and the butterfly die is Gina Marie Designs. I adhered a flower gem to the butterfly. The white panel is embossed with a holly design. I also used W for Wine ( sentiment and butterfly).

ReplyDeleteOh, your windmill card is amazing!! Love how it turned out with the gorgeous embossing and the beautiful butterfly!!! The paper with holly and pine branches is just perfect for the whole design! I have never thought to make a Christmas card with a butterfly, but your is brilliant! Very well done!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beauty Kitty! I love the embossing you added to the white card, it's so detailed and delicate. I also love the thin border around the card base, it looks like you've coordinated it perfectly with the awesome windmill feature. The butterfly and rhinestone flower are fabulous embellishments. Love it!
