Come Fly with Me..

It's a new challenge over at my

Butterfly challenge.

#39 Butterflies + K is for Knots.

 Any medium to make your knot is acceptable.  (ribbon, lace, cord, rope, twine etc)

along with the required Butterfly/s of course.

Here is the card I made.

How can such a relativity simple design

take so long to make cos it did!!

My love/hate relationship with  acetate 

is back on track.

Cutting the aperture using  Spellbinders 

'Deckled Rectangles die was the easy bit.

Because I was using acetate for the window 

it all had to be neatened up on the  inside and that was 

the faffing around bit.

I had the idea to use this butterfly from my stash

and make it into a kite using string as the tail

with knots tied into it. 

As the Butterfly had a hot air balloon as part 

of the design I rummaged in my stash and found

 this  freebie paper  from Making Cards Magazine

called 'Wondnerful Watercolours' which matched  perfectly.

Here is a close up of the knots in the kite tail. 

Hessain string was oddments from making bags

and the pearls were from my stash.

Hope along with Kath that we have given you some inspiration.
