As usual I have made a card for your inspiration. The shape is far from new as I have found various instructions for making it ( also using different shape names) on YouTube, one even going back 7yrs!
I have used all the elements on the wheel. In all of my stash of papers I couldn't find even just one using the colours and elements that I wanted so as the saying goes If you can't beat them then join them!
I made my own design paper using a selection of SU stamps from 'Everything is Rosy', 'Berry Blessings',' Butterfly Gala', 'What I Love' and 'Brushed Blooms. I watched loads of YouTube tutorials by Ruth Trice of Artful Stampin who is an absolute wizz at Stamped One Sheet Wonders.
This is the design paper that I made to use for the card.
Here is the card opened out. The stamped design on the back panel is by SU from their 'Floral Statements' set which I have coloured using Promarker pens to match the Stampin Up ink that I used on the design paper. I also used a silver gel pen.
Below shows the design paper cut to fit the panels. It really is an easy card shape to do.
I hope you will come and have a play in the Butterfly Garden. Challenge is running until 24th January.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
The Alphabet Challenge # : T is for Thankyou
A Place to Start # : Anything goes.
Love to Craft #72 : Anything goes.
