~Rene's Butterfly Tree~

Photo Details

Poster: Blooms in a Box

Auntie Rene (favorite Aunt Rene....) loves butterflies. When I saw this card by Connie (Stamp 300), I could feel the case coming on! I kinda went overboard with the butterflies, trying to cover up the wire framing made with crystal garland from HL....but I think my Aunt will like it. She loves all white cards and sparklies! Connie, thank you for the inspiration, your card is a delight!

I cut the garland, which was on thin silver wire, and cut off the larger crystal beads, and formed a tree frame. Once done, I used Crystal Effects to glue down the beads. When it was dry, I added Dazzling Diamonds to the edges of the butterfly wings and adhered with Elmer's glue to cover the remaining wire.

Thanks for looking!
