A trio of butterflies ...

One day, two posts ... this is turning into a successful day! A post this morning, ironing complete, a chat with my mum and a new recipe being created for dinner this evening!!  So this will be a quick post while I wait for one element of dinner to cook!

Another white on white card for the challenge at "Less is More" ... this time a birthday card, still no stamping just die cuts and a little embossing.



The butterflies are made of two layers - one of card and one of vellum attached to the panel by a line of machine stitching.  The sentiment has been heat embossed twice to give a faux metal appearance.

I used:
Die'sire Delicate Butterfly
Clearly Besotted Happy and Birthday die
Wow embossing powder.

Enjoy!
