Braided Butterfly

 



I saw this challenge with 'The Butterfly Challenge' and thought it would be fun to try something new with this braided edge.  I had some two-tone Recollections cs, pink on one side and lavender on the other.  The lavender and blue paper on the front is from Recollections as well.   I cut the long piece out of a piece of scrap and rounded the two corners.  The butterflies are from Simon Says Stamp  - The Devonshire Butterfly and the Pauling Butterfly dies.  The sentiment is also a die from SSS ... You're Amazing which I think was a gift from SSS.  I added a bit of Wink of Stella on the top butterfly to shine it up.  I added the peach Neuvo drops and white gel pen stitching.  



I would like to add this card to the following challenges if I may.

The Butterfly challenge for the inspiration - hitting all of the items with P, Plaited fold, periwinkle, peach, plum, pair of butterflies 
Unstampable Bellas - Seasonal with no stamping
A Place to Start - Create your own challenge - "Learn something new"
Crafty Hazlenut - With pattern paper
Double D Challenge - Signs of Summer


Thank  you so very much for stopping by

Wishing you a wonderful day.

Hello Dawn, welcome to my challenge. Wow, That really does look effective with the two toning on the plaited edge. Thankyou for coming and playing in the butterfly garden with me. Sorry for delay in commenting due to family illness.
