Hello friends~ It's time for a new challenge over at Double D Challenges.
This week, the theme is Butterflies:
Who doesn't have tons of them in their stash? I do and I had a hard time deciding what direction I was going to go with this challenge. I started by pulling out beautiful papers by Mintay called 7th Heaven.
Yes, you've seen many projects from me using this line of paper but I just can't help myself from using it again and again. But this card has a twist...
Literally!! When you open it, four beautiful panels twist and pop out. I used Karen Burniston's Twist Panel Pop-Up die to create this.
This line of paper lends itself perfectly to this style of card because each set contains two sheets of these lovely journal panels. Here are more butterflies, in keeping with the theme of the challenge.
There's plenty of room to write or stamp a thoughtful message to the recipient.
I added another journaling panel at the bottom of the card for room to sign your name.
This card looks like it took hours to make but it actually came together fairly quickly once I figured out how to assemble the twist panel gizmo.
Now it's your turn to join in on the fun at Double D Challenges.
Here's what you could win:
Thanks for stopping by!
