Just had to play for this challenge, though it seems strange to be doing a word play on WINTER with a butterfly stamp - oh well, wishing for an early Spring!!
For W, I cut strips of DP and WOVE them for the background,
for I, used INK, on 2 Step Butterflies,
for N, used NESTABILITIES Ribbon Tags Trio.
for T, used TAG from Mini Tags 3 set,
for E, used EMBOSSING POWDER on the tag,
for R, used RIBBON - celery and Razzleberry!
I also used some leaf dies, and my MS branch punch!
Inside I have a sentiment from the set, With Heartfelt Sympathy.
Added a little Dazzling Diamonds to the butterflies, and then popped them up on dimensionals!
Thanking for looking!

OH so pretty...I was just looking at ODBD for the challenge...what a way to open the gallery with a perfect example for it...:0).
Super job on using ALL the winter letters...
and the weaving is awesome...I thought it was paper at first...neat idea, and love your pretty butterflies( which I am with you at thinking about spring...I dont mind helping it along as well :0)...)
this will definitely cheer one up and uplift them in a sad time...TFS...:0)
