Flutterby Trio

Check out this COOL apple card by Melinda Spinks. Oh my word, LOVE it and it totally inspired me to make this card...



I used Verve's Flutterby Die and sentiment from Fluttering By. The three butterflies are up on foam tape on the card base. A second peach butterfly was added and popped up on a second layer of foam tape and then the wings were bent up on each side. Here's a close-up...



Papers are Howdy Doody by My Mind's Eye and I added some PTI buttons with silver cord.

Sweet dreams!
