The current Butterfly Challenge is 'R for Recycle and/or Ruby Red'. I have used cardboard from a croissant box and the image was cut from a postcard. The ruby red card was from my snippets drawer so I'm popping over to the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.
Card blank: 5" x 5" cream silk
Image: Upcycled postcard
Die: Tattered Lace 'Mini Butterfly'
Card: Upcycled croissant box
Snippets: Ruby red embossed card
I cut a square of card from the bottom of the croissant box, layered it onto ruby red embossed card and attached it to the card front. The image was trimmed to a square leaving the flower and a few petals, this was then layered onto red card and attached to the centre. I die cut a mini butterfly and attached it to the top of the image.
