My dear friend, Betty, shared some of her leftover Altenew Fluttering Fantasies butterfly diecuts from a class she taught. I had fun figuring out which shapes and colors to layer. The bodies were black cardstock, so I silver embossed them to get the look I wanted. 
I die cut a white panel with PFS Hexagon Blanket Stitch before embossing with Altenew Flower Bed 3D folder. I die cut a smaller PFS Hexagon to use the sentiment from Altenew Plants and Vases. A silver glitter pen was used on the flower centers. I love how this turned out and think my sister will, too. She loves blue, silver and butterflies and is my biggest supporter. I'm entering JUGS, DCD and WAW.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
Greta, I’m so happy you got your laptop back! I’m sorry to hear about Fritz‘s leg. I hope that he gets better soon. Your card is really sweet. I love the butterflies and that hexagon shape. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We have a new challenge starting today and would love to have you join us again!
