Folded the wings up a little, swiped the underside of them in DI Milled Lavender and set aside. The circles I cut with Nestabilities, one out of white cardstock, one out of a scrap of lavender cardstock. The lavender circle I cut larger and then cut around the circle carefully with some decorative scissors. On the white cardstock, I stamped the birthday cake from Stampin' Up Whimsical Words collection and the sentiment. The Happy Birthday stamp I used who knows where it is from, it is very old one, I have had for ages!
Took a pale yellow 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock card(?), scoring it on my Martha Steward scoreboard and then cutting on the scoreline with on the Fiskars rotary cutting board. Then scored halfway of that and folded over on the crease forming my card. On the front I glued the designer papers and circles, then made a slit in the crease of the card where I wanted the ribbon (scrapbag) to come thru, threaded the ribbon and tied in a simple bow. Placed the butterflies on card where I thought they looked the best and glued them on. Printed a verse out on the computer that I like on regular copy paper, tore edges (not shown), inked them with the Milled Lavender and stick glued it on the inside. It is a simple card but I thought it turned out quite nice. Remember to click on photo to see a much larger image.
