A Butterfly Thinlit Better Together and Flourish Thinlits Birthday Card

I LOVE that lattice flowery looking border on the left of this card.  It's a fun to look at and fun to play with.  At first I wasn't all that fond of it because I thought it was difficult to glue in place.  But I found that if I spread some white glue on waxed paper and set the piece directly in it.  I gently pressed it into the glue.  Not too hard because I didn't want glue oozing on top of the image.  I set it in place and took a toothpick to any little bits of glue that may have oozed out.

I layered the lattice looking piece on top of a 7/8" piece of Whisper White and I layered that on top of a 1-1/8" piece of Basic Black.  

I cut out a Rose Red butterfly using the "Butterfly" thinlit.  I set it in place using Dimensionals.  I added some pearls down the center to give it a bit of glitz!!

The words are from the "Better Together" set.  And that was it. Pretty quick and simple too!!

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda

  1. SU has a fine tip glue that works well for these kind of projects. It might be a little time consuming but well worth it. Lovely card, I don't have either of those thinlits but I am sure I can find someone in my card making circle that will let me borrow, lol.
