Beauty Abounds with Botanical Butterfly
It seems I am making great use of the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper. It is just so versatile and can be used for any card you chose to make. Beauty Abounds is the stamp set the greeting and sentiment are from. The Stitched Label Framelits makes a pretty addition to the card with the greeting stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink.
My sketch and inspiration come from the TGIF Challenge 200. Such a lovely sketch for the challenge.
I also decided to play at As You See It because this is a very simple card in spite of my detailed instructions. I could have just said cut your paper the sizes I have listed and adhere them with Liquid Glue, cut you some butterflies out and stick them on. I wanted to make it detailed to show how easy it really is. It is all about wording. When I think SIMPLE I think of making it easy so the novice has a chance to make a beautiful card. 
This is a really simple and easy card but it will look complicated when I number the steps to creating. Do not let that deter you from making it. You will see the majority of the card is cutting. If you can cut, you can make. Follow the card recipe below:
- Cut a 4-1/4″ x 11″ card base using thick Whisper White card stock.
- Score the card at 5-1/2″ and fold on the scoreline.
- Cut a 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ mat using Basic Black card stock.
- Cut a 4″ x 5-1/4″ panel using a sheet of the Botanical Butterfly DSP
- Adhere the Botanical Butterfly DSP to the Basic Black mat using Liquid Glue.
- Cut a 2-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ panel using the Basic Black card stock.
- Cut a 2″ x 5-1/4″ panel from the Botanical Butterfly DSP using one of the sheets that have the above butterflies on it.
- Adhere the 2″ panel to the Basic Black mat using Liquid Glue.
- Adhere these two panels to the green Botanical Butterfly panel. I realized when taking pictures I could have used only half a panel of this DSP.
- Fussy cut 2 small butterflies and 1 large butterfly from the Botanical Butterfly DSP.
- Using thick Whisper White card stock cut a label using the large framelits from the Stitched Labels Framelits set.
- Stamp in Gorgeous Grape the greeting from the Beauty Abounds stamp set.
- Pop the Stitched Label over the focal panels of butterflies and greenery using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Adhere the large butterfly to the left corner of the Stitched Label using a Glue Dot.
- Adhere the two small butterflies using Glue Dots, one to the lower right corner of the Stitched Label and the other on one of the stems of the green flowers at the top of the left panel.
- The inside sentiment from the Beauty Abounds stamp set is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink on a panel of Whisper White that has been matted on a panel of Basic Black card stock using Liquid Glue.
- Fussy cut a large butterfly from the Botanical Butterfly DSP and adhered with Liquid Glue.
- Using Liquid Glue adhere the finished panel to the card base.
