Blue Butterfly - Elizabeth Craft designs

 Hi and Welcome!!!

This is a card I created for a friend who loves blue butterflies. I used Angelica Turner's Florals 31 along with Art Journal Specials Ornate Butterfly.

Create a 5 x 7" card base from white cardstock. Cut 2 layers from white cardstock 4 3/4 x 6 3/4" and 4 1/2 x 6 1/2". Color the edges of th larger one using 
Archival Manganese Blue ink. Using an embossing folder, dry emboss the smaller layer.
Adhere the two layers together with glue, then adhere to the card base using dimensional tape. 
Cut white cardstock 4 x 6", punch the corners using a butterfly corner punch. Adhere to the inside of the card on top of a white 4 3/4 x 6 3/4" colored with Manganese Blue ink.
Diecut the butterfly base and decorative layer from soft finish cardstock. Color the base and the center of the butterfly, shape with fingers, adhere together and adhere to the top of the card front.  
Diecut flowers, leaves and foliage from soft finish cardstock, color, shape, add two same size flowers together offset, add prills to the centers and adhere flowers and foliage under the butterfly using hot glue.
