Exquisite Butterflies Birthday Wishes by Jean Okimoto

Celebrate a spring or summer birthday with a trio of Exquisite Butterflies.  A slimline card – with lots of white space – balances the shimmery, shiny metallic 6×6 artpapers.  Hi, Jean here with a simple design for a special occasion.

Cut Exquisite Butterflies from a gold Rainbow Reflections Mirror Pad 6×6.  Cut a turquoise Rainbow Reflections 6×6 with the 2″ wide  Wrapped Stitch Rectangle Layers die.  Assemble the butterflies and attach them to the rectangle – use foam tape for the upper wing sections.

Carefully remove the entire sheet of the turquoise and gold Anemone Grove 6×6 – including the top edge that’s attached to the pad. Cut it with the 1-⅛” wide Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.

Cut a turquoise 6×6 from the solid-core Lagoon Collection with the ⅝” wide Slim Basic Rectangle Layers die.

Attach the diecuts to a white slimline card (3-⅝” x 8-½”).  Add turquoise Christmas Fairy Dewdrops.  Add special wishes with a Happy Birthday Foil Greetings White Circle Tab. Cut a slimline-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

I’ve used a lot of the white and black foil greeting tabs recently.  These instant greetings complement any design and add subtle dimension to your cards.  If you already have a stash of completed birthday cards our Thank You Foil Greetings White Circle Tabs would work with this design too.  

Thanks for visiting…have a great weekend!
