Hello Beautiful

Hello beautiful...Happy Wednesday to you! When I was creating for the Concord & 9th Birthday Bash Blog Hop I made sure to create a few extra butterflies so that I could use them at a later date. Today seems like the perfect day to share one of them!! :)

To start, I stamped multiple strips of colored card-stock using that small star cluster again from Eat Cake & Celebrate. Love those bitty stars...they add just enough 'pizazz' to my card. Next, I moved onto my butterfly. Again, a little time consuming, but worth it to me. I die cut one butterfly in each of the colors you see in the photo and then die cut a white one. Then I just started assembling my colorful pieces inside the white and voila...one colorful, happy butterfly!

 **A little tip - I flip the butterfly over and insert the pieces upside down. After they are all placed where I want them, I add strips of scotch tape to secure them. **

Now onto my sentiment. Again, I used that amazing 'beautiful' die that I am smitten with. And just underneath I added a banner with the word 'HELLO', from the Flourish stamp set. To complete my card, I simply added a black button the center of my butterfly.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you all have a fabulous day!
