Happy Birthday Butterfly

I made this card for a friend's birthday and am entering the Cardz 4 Galz 'Dimensional Elements' challenge, the Seize the Birthday 'Anything Goes' challenge and Crafty Creations Challenges 'Anything Goes'.


6" x 6" white pearlescent card blank
Cheery Lynn 'Butterfly 7' and Memory Box 'Grand Happy Birthday' dies
Purple and white pearlescent card
Polkadoodles 'Fourini' paper

I trimmed purple pearlescent card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and attached the Fourini paper to the top section.  This panel was then attached to the card blank.  I die cut the Grand Happy Birthday from both white and purple card.  The white sentiment was trimmed and attached to the lower section of the card and I then inlaid the purple letters.  I die cut the butterfly from purple card and attached it to the top corner of the card and inlaid the butterfly body in white.  To finish I curled the butterfly wings to give dimension to the card.
