Thank you Swing Fold card.

Ever onward with finding a new card shape to make.
This one is called a Swing fold and is made using a die cut.
I found loads of versions on You Tube.
I used this excellent Tutorial on 
Splitcoaststampers by Norma  Lee.

I used a Spellbinders label 4 as my die cut shape.

Backing paper is by Sally Moret 2012( a freebie from a magazine).
Butterfly panels made using a tonic border punch.
Flower shapes were already cut out in my stash.
I coloured using promarkers to match the design  paper.
Leaves were also precut in coloured card in my stash.
Pearls and liquid pearls used for flower centres.
Fabric butterfly found in my stash.

Taken at another angle to show the swing  effect.

Finally  the inside of the card.
Sentiment is an Anita's  Outline Sticker.
I made this card to give to  The Doc's  Aunt
and  to showcase the new theme

Gorgeous, gorgeous, just everything about it. One of my fav S/B dies for the mat, and loving the swing card fold. Those borders are just delicious, and what a stunning card for the 1st Butterfly Challenge kickoff. Saw it at the Playground and hopped over for a closer detailed look. Big Wowza! TFS
