Dollar Tree and scraps Card

This card is a bit blurry because the butterfly is thick and made the other part move when I scanned it.
Materials needed:
Burlap & feathers butterfly from Dollar Tree
Scrap card stock 2 x 3 1/2"
Scrap patterned paper 2 1/2 x 3 1/2"
Solid color card stock 4 1/4 x 5 1/2"
Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set
Word Window punch
Modern Label punch
Butterfly brads from a craft store
Glue dots

This was very easy to put together. I did put plenty of glue dots on the butterfly to hold it in place. I put 5-6 glue dots. This card can not be mailed in a regular envelope because of it's thickness. I requires a larger envelope and extra postage.

Erase any pencils marks left showing with an art gum eraser. Adhese the pattened paper over the stamped images so that they show through the cirlces.

Wildflower Meadow

This is the Wildflower Meadow background stamp colored with SU markers. I then embossed it with the matching Wildflower Meadow embossing folder. I placed tiny pearls in the center of 3 flowers and then added 3 pearls on the Lost Lagoon ribbon.

Fall Windows

For this card, I wanted something a bit more fallish so I used Pumpkin Pie card stock. The patterned papers are again from the Greenhouse Gala set. These pieces were made from different sides of papers that I had leftover. The blue felt flowers were carried by SU several years ago. I wrapped floss around the top section 3 times and adhere it to the back.
The blue background for this card was made from the white card stock base. I applied Night of Navy ink directly to the card stock. I didn't need to cover the entire card because I was putting the Pumpkin Pie on top of it.
