Daphne Butterfly.


Good morning friends, followers and visitors..welcome to new followers..thank you for joining me.


Today I am blogging over on  Poppystamps blog  this is my DT card..
I have done a bit of splattering with silver ink and  distressing with white Gesso, just touches you might see.


Card size 7"x 7"finished.  I have used this beautiful "Daphne Butterfly", there is no a solid shape, so I adhered a white cut butterfly to white card and cut around the shape, next I cut one in pink card, adhered both together by the centre body, left the wings to look like they are flying.



I sat this butterfly on the New "Grand Stick Frame"  green outside..white splattered centre.. touch of white Gesso.
Next I cut white card around 5" square, embossed in a folder from my stash, splattered again in silver... I used  pink  die cut "Shaker square" by Memory Box..  Open Studio.
Cut another green "Grand Stick Frame" cut into four pieces, then placed on  the 5" card corners.
Embellished with "Freida Leaf"   Seam binding..stick pins, sentiment taken from Poppystamps "Hope and Thanks" clear stamps, stamped onto "Stitched main Street Tags".. dotted around some small Butterfly Sprinkles in pink.  



Thank you for visiting today, would be lovely if you left a comment so I know you stopped for a while... Pam x
