First things first, Happy Birthday Gaby and Happy Earth Day! Welcome to my blog and to Gaby’s Blog Hop. If you want in on the fun and prizes make sure you start with Gaby! If you arrived from Melissa Made you're on the right track.
I love Butterflies and could not think of a better way to celebrate Earth Day and my friend’s birthday than to make a cute butterfly card!
I used the Cricut Florals Embellished cartridge and Design Studio to make this adorable butterfly. The butterfly image is located on page 64 of the manual.
To make the card, I welded two shadow images together. Next I cut all the layers at 3¼ inches. Lots of layers, but super easy to make. First, I attached the black shadow to the base card and then attached the light green piece to the black piece. I attached the remaining layers, added glitter and pop dotted to the black layer. I love how sweet this card is, just like Gaby!!
Your next stop is Abby from Scrapabookaholic by Abby.
Hope you enjoy the hop and have a Happy Easter!

Great butterfly! Love the layers and colors.
I love butterflies. Adorable project. Happy Easter! :)
I loved the card & tried to replicate it with DS only to get frustrated that it cut 2 black butterflies instead of welding it like I thought I was doing, then the layers didn't line up like yours so I tried manually doing it on the machine, no dice! I thought the layers needed to be cut at 3 but the machine said N/A!!! Guess I'll just have to keep trying with different size cuts.
Brenda, that is so weird. I welded the two shadows together and then cut another one to place on top. Was the weld box checked? My layers worked and I cut all the pieces at the smae size. Please email me if I can help.
Linda
oh I love that butterfly
