Inside out butterfly

 Hello lovely crafters. 

I see a pattern emerging here. I see the butterfly challenge. I start a card. It gets complicated and fiddly and hidden under a pile of c**p stuff, I realise I'm running out of time, I finish the card. 

Here is my latest butterfly offering. 

Mrs A has challenged us to make a Inside out Card. As usual she gives clear instructions. 

As usual I tried to overcomplicate things but here is the inside of the finished card. As you open it the butterfly pops up. 

It really is a simple technique which gives a great effect. I've left it blank for now but may add a greeting or even decorate the back as well. 


I've used Inking on the stencilled background and coloured all the flowers and leaves with markers. 
Iceberg for the background
Inchworm for the leaves and stems
Ivory card for the base. 
Plus butterfly and inside out card, of course. 
Thanks Mrs A for all the fun ideas. 

I'm also hopping over to Pixie's Snippets Playground as everything is made from snippets.

  1. A great card for the butterfly challenge - braver than me 'cos I didn't make the inside out although as you say the tutorial was excellent.
