BORDER DIE BUTTERFLY..

 Hello everyone,

Back to share a card I made quite awhile ago and just never got round to sharing...it was an experiment but came out quite good...


So I had this die forever and and can honestly say I have not used it ...I know, shame.


I thought it looked like a butterfly wing, so cut of them out..




 placed them onto this pretty spotted paper from Jillibean  to see how it would come together, and added some water colour leaves from my left overs..



Then filled the spine void with flowers using a mixture of colours..


A simple Happy Birthday sentiment...


With plenty of dimension..


And very pretty..but needed a box, it just needed a box..


So I made one..simple flowers in a cluster and some Bee's..with 
' Just for you die' cut..


The card nestled in quite happily...


Snug but not tight...


Standing up together..


And there we go..

I had no internet for awhile today and it became very stressful when I couldn't bring it back..
But up and running now so all happy..

Thank you so much for stopping by,
I'll see you tomorrow..

Luv CHRISSYxx
