Butterfly Trio

After waiting patiently through a longer than usual spring, summer finally seems to have arrived in Ottawa. The sunny days are punctuated with frequent rain but at least it is shorts and sandals weather! The background for today’s butterfly card seems pretty summery to me.
I used alcohol inks on yupo paper to create the background then attached the yupo to white cardstock before die-cutting the butterfly trio from the panel. I also die cut the butterflies from white fun foam so I could pop the trio up out of the background. I did not replace the little die cut shapes in the wings but matted the whole panel in teal instead to create a frame that matched the wings and the sentiment.
I hope the sun is shining where you are.
Supplies
Dies: butterfly trio, doodles (PB)

An amazing card for summer Heather. How clever to use die cut fun foam to raise the butterflies. Well done!
This is stunning Heather and the colour combination is gorgeous. I adore the die cut butterflies and the dark blue card behind brings out the other colours beautifully. x
Wow…you just opened up a whole new ‘thought process’ for my stack of alcohol inked fronts! Now my little mind is spinning with excitement! ♥♥♥
I did see you had another rainfall weather statement last night. 😦 The teal looks great with the background!
WOWZERS! This is gorgeous!
Gorgeous alcohol inks panel, Heather. And an amazing design. LOVE the teal paper backing that shows through your pretty butterflies. xx
