Butterfly Wishes Birthday Card!

Hey all! Yes, another post tonight! Our challenge this week over at Cricut Cardz was to create something with a bird or butterfly cricut cut. I used the Create A Critter cartridge that I'm beginning to LOVE! I know, I know I think I say that about every new cart but this one is SO versatile! If you don't have it, I would say it's a must have!

I cut the butterfly (at 4inches) once in dark grey, then cut the layer once in pink and then the outline twice; once in purple and once in frosted vellum. I adhered them together so that the purple and vellum layers "fluttered".

I used gorgeous flowery paper layered atop butter yellow cardstock as the backdrop for my butterfly. I added a satin baby blue ribbon and attached a pink button with pink twine. Of course, I added some Luster Ice baubles too! My UK BlogFriend Jenny sent me a care package with a ton of yummy goodies, one of which was a set of foiled card sentiments. I used one of those sentiments "Butterfly Wishes" and backed it with pink cardstock and purple mini brads. This card could easily be used as a "baby" card but I chose to use it as a birthday card and used the following "Postmark Sentiments for Cards" sticker on the inside:
