Floral Forest.

My final card to show you for the current Butterfly challenge that still has a week to run and closes on Tuesday 28th  8pm (GMT).

Here I have used all seven elements of the wheel.
Butterfly/Ferrari Red/French Blue/Fuchsia/Frame It/Flowers/Folds more than 1.

The card is an easel card and I have cut the frame using my Xcut rectangles die cuts. The stsmp  is by Stampingbella called  'Floral forest Backdrop' which I have coloured using my Graph'it pens onto pale blue card stock. I went round the edges with a silver gel pen.  The stamp is quite a modern funky style so I teamed it with a  large sentiment stamp by  Honey Bee and used 2 hessian butterfly shapes which I mounted on top of each other to make a dimensional butterfly. 

Looking down on the easel card turned side ways  to show the folds.
Hope you will come and join in.

A lovely garden of flowers beautifully colored. I love the fun of an easel card. Where do cows usually go for fun? To the moo-vies. Let me know if these jokes are too corny and if you want me to stop. I have many more! I did the same thing you do - sent them to the grands.
