Beautiful Butterfly

Hello bloggers!  Continuing with the Filligree Artistry collection and the Beautiful Butterfly.  I think that ever craft stash needs a few butterflies and this one would be top of my list!  It is so very detailed and intricate, but it will look amazing with just about anything you put it with too!  The lines have all been designed to look like you spent hours hand piercing it out of vellum.  You can see the Scalloped Border looks gorgeous with the Beautiful Butterfly accent  too.  I would love to know what you think of it.  Just leave me a quick comment on this post and you might even win it, who knows!  Don't forget you can use the Pinit button at the end of each and every blog post to save any card or die for later inspiration.  The last post of the day will be online at 6pm, I would love igt if you are able to pop back by the blog then to have a look.  All for now, Sue x

    The butterfly has a wonderful filigree look that makes it a stunning accent and the gorgeous border die really stands out against the blue background. Both are going on to my ever expanding wishlist. X

    Hi Sue,

    I think butterflies are essential additions to any self-respecting crafter’s stash - not only are they gorgeous when used in their own right, but they’re a great way of covering up any little accidents (rogue inky finger print, slight rough edge, glue splodge - you name it, chances are a butterfly can hide it!)
