Purple Butterflies

Hello :)
Hope you are having a lovely summer. Here in Ireland we are officially in a drought! It is so hard to believe considering we haven't really had a summer for 4-5 years!
This week over at Eclectic Ellapu the challenge is Shades of Purple with main focus on butterflies.

This is the card I made for this week.

I used some beautiful printed vellum for the piece on the left, and tore some spotty paper for the bottom. Using washi tape I cut it to look like a banner, and then used a paper flower and button for the embellishment. I stuck a butterfly mirror embellishment on the flower also.


With a white cut out circle I stamped some beautiful butterflies, from the Indigo Blu Live Love laugh stamp range, and stuck it onto a pre cut scalloped circle, I previously cut with my cricut.
I used another paper flower and flower embellishment for the side detail.



Another close up -



Why not give this challenge a go? Hope you are having a great day, thanks for stopping by.

This is a very petty card! I love the lil mirror butterfly! That takes bling a whole new level! :) Purple
