Butterfly Challenge #54

Good Morning !  Today is National Apple Pie Day.  Go out and get yourself a great apple pie, some vanilla ice cream and ENJOY!!.


I would like to enter the following card into the Butterfly Challenge #54. This weeks color  is the letter R.  The color is Red and the theme is Recycle.  For my card I used white card stock from Recollections. I die cut the border with Die'Sire Edgeables Butterfly Dreams from Crafters Companion and used red chalk to stencil onto the butterflies.  The flowers are die cut from a soda can.(recycle).Pearls were placed in the center of each flower.  The pink butterfly was created by using a 5 pedal mulberry flower in which one petal was folded to the back to form the butterfly. I applied Frosted Lace stickles to the wings and attached 4 small pearls to each wing. The antenna are made using a pearl stamen for flowers. I added a pearl flower to the center of the butterfly. The leaves are die cut from scrap paper. I placed a pink insert inside the card so it would show through the butterfly die border. I also added randomly place pink sequins to the front of the card. The sentiment was die cut from red glitter paper from Die Cuts With A View.

I hope everyone has a great day and a great weekend. Don't forget tomorrow is Dance Like a Chicken Day. lol . Its been years since I danced to the beat of the Chicken Dance song.!  I think this dance is mostly done at wedding receptions. It always brought a smile to those who watched and great laughter from those who actually had the nerve to get out on the dance floor and to this dance! As I write this I am hearing the music in my head and remembering the fun I had "shaking my tail feather"  lol.
