Winter Butterfly
Topic: New Work

Sometimes, when the snow is coming down and the ice is thick on the road, what you really need is to get a little floral and butterfly mojo goin' on! Such was the case today.

I used the dotted Cuttlebug folder to impress a large card base of golden sunshine yellow. I used a scalloped oval template with my Coluzzle to open an aperture and then lined the entire inside of the front panel with this batik print floral.  I attached a buterfly cut from a magazine advertisement - just gluing down the body and tipping up the wings.

This close-up shot gives a better view of the 3-dimensional quality of this assemblage. The color is better on the image above.

I added two stickers to read "priceless treasure".

Love your card.  Can you tell me how you managed to get the cuttlebug embossing down the center of the card with the two strips on each side?  Thanks for your help.

I folded the cardstock, placed the folder over just the front at the top of the card and made the impression. The I moved it to the bottom edge of the card, aligned the dots and impressed it again. The second pass flattens out two rows of the first pass so the back only of the plate is put back under them and you can raise the dots again by pressing with your finger. The side edges are what extend beyond the edges of the plate.
