Butterfly Slimline Card

 This card is based on one I saw on Pinterest but there was no name attached to it so I am not are who originally made it. 

This was considerably more difficult than I anticipated... I ended up making a slimline card as an A2 card didn't allow enough room for three butterflies to cross the open centre. I stamped a sentiment along the side in black ink. I chose brushed gold paper for the butterflies and I randomly marker coloured parts of them. The flowers and leaves were arranged coming out from the sentiment strips - that was tough as the sentiments needed to be straight so I couldn't put them on the butterflies until those were adhered to the card. The little flowers and leaves had to be arranged in such a way that the ends were covered by the sentiment pieces. 

I splattered the two side panels with gold paint and added gold gems around the card. 

Enjoy,
