We are having beautiful weather here in the UK at the moment and I have noticed quite a few butterflies in my garden, so I have been inspired to pull out my Antique Engraving set again and make this card with paper pieced butterflies. Here is a closeup of them attached by just the middle so I could lift the wings for more dimension.
At last I have found time for a little creating, life is so busy at work at the moment that crafting has taken a back seat, still School breaks for the summer in just over a week and I can't wait!!

Beautiful card Sally, the butterflies look fantastic paper pieced. I would never have thought to do that!

I'm glad you were inspired by your garden butterflies to create this lovely card! I can totally relate to a busy work schedule- I keep telling myself " and this too shall pass":)
