Free Design of the Week - Butterfly - 27th February 2018

Hello, hello - Karen here with my weekly take on the DOTW.  This week it is this lovely butterfly.

As soon as I saw it I knew it would make a beautiful card to go with the gift box I made last week. 

I put a sketch pen into my Silhouette to draw rather than cut the lines as I figured this would then give me the exact placement for the intricate shapes I was going to cut later.  I also added a sentiment using a sketch pen font.  I drew the butterfly and sentiment onto a 13.5cm square card.

Next I separated all the colours out into separate areas and cut them from the same papers as I had used for my gift box last week.

Once stuck down, I had a very pretty card to send to my mum.
