This card is made with an upcycled birthday card - the floral image had been attached with foam pads onto a large birthday card giving a 3D effect. I carefully removed the pretty topper to make a card for a friend's forthcoming birthday.

To make this card I used:
7" x 5" white matt card blank
Upcycled birthday card
Tattered Lace 'Mini Butterfly' die
Snippets of dark green card, pink pearlescent card and Lili of the Valley 'Beach Bliss' paper
I trimmed the green paper, layered it onto a snippet of dark green card and attached it to the front of the card blank. After carefully removing the topper from the original birthday card, I removed all the foam tape from the back and applied thin foam tape to attach it to the centre of the card. To finish I die cut a small butterfly from a tiny snippet of pink pearlescent card and attached it to the card.
I am entering the following challenges:
Butterfly Challenge - Spin the Wheel with the Letter T (I have used Tea Green, Thistle and Tango Pink on my card, plus my butterfly)
Daisy Chain Challenge - Flowers
Happy Little Stampers Birthday Challenge - Anything Goes
Love to Scrap - Anything Goes

Great recycling from the original card. Loving the background colours. They go so well with the topper. Thankyou for coming and playing in the butterfly garden with me. The squirrels are having a high old time in there burying nuts left right and centre! Hugs Mrs A.
Great card, Kath. The topper is perfect to upcycle into a new (and better!) card. xx
