Live and learn.

 Or maybe the title should be don't stop playing. Either way, I'm going to show you what happened when I got it all together.

First I made some backgrounds using different colored inks. Then I stamped butterflies on them. This time I left the smallest butterfly off. You can't tell in the pictures but I also blended in some metallic ink and it gave it a nice shimmer.


Next was adding a stamped sentiment to the front of the card. When I took this picture I still hadn't added the sentiment on the 4th card.


Each background I created was mounted on a colored piece of cardstock. Inside, using the same colored cardstock I added a pop up butterfly.

    It's okay to make mistakes. Look what you did this time. They are so pretty. We live and learn. Thankfully you didn't give up.
