Be Happy Butterfly
Posted by Becca Feeken on Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008
I don’t know why, but these colors remind me of a Dreamscicle. This card is actually left over pieces I had laying on my table. The half circles are leftovers of a Nestabilities frame I was cutting and I hung on to them. After playing around with them a little bit, they reminded me of a butterfly. I pulled out a silver photo turn and melted embossing powder on it and wrapped it with sparkly thread and added a bling for the head. The antenna are the stamen of a flower from my stash.
This was a quick and easy card, 4"x4" which is small for me. If it works out, I have another one planned from my scrap pile. All in all, an easy blogging day! Wishing you much joy today!

What a wonderful use of leftovers!! Fabulous use of leftovers!!
Dreamscicles used to be one of my favs as a kid and this paper is just beautiful. I just ordered a bunch of new paper and can hardly wait for it to get here.
Have a great evening.
Too cute! Isn’t it great when those little bits of leftovers find new life in something so cute? Your butterfly is so sweet.
