Hi,
I am very happy it is Friday, it has been a hard week :(
To celebrate I am entering Card Concept #7 - Use a Butterfly theme -
I decided to give 'Freestyle Collage' another go - once again I hope I have interpreted it right, because I have only attempted this a couple of times..
The main photo today is my entry - I know I always say how pleased I am with things, but this little beauty really put a smile on my face!
I used the colours of the butterfly in the inspiration photo as my starting point. I decided to use a hexagon Silhouette file I have and because I wanted the hexagons that sit inside the frame to be different colours I cut 3 of the hexagon file - meaning I have 2 to play with another day - YAY!
I rooted through almost all of my paper searching for the right backing paper, the piece I have finally settled on is by Studio Calico. The butterfly was trial and error - I tried different sizes before settling on what you see now and they were cut with a xCut die. I added bling and a peel-off sentiment.
Here's an angled view for a better look at the butterflies.
Angled view |
Happy Friday everyone.
