And I immediately thought of this pack of die cuts I found at Dollar Tree (in the gardening section for some reason) and while most of them were a reasonable card size, there were a couple of absolutely huge butterflies that I had no idea how to use. Sandye showed me the way, just donât use all of it! Where her card used a stamp, mine uses one of the die cuts, but I used a butterfly image as in her card. I trimmed a piece of Basic Grey pattern paper a tiny bit smaller than my white card, then glued down the butterfly and trimmed the edges. I stamped the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock. I attached it to the butterfly piece with foam tape and then used foam tape to attach the whole thing to the base card. I finished with a couple of black gem stickers.
Have a great week Sandye, and thanks for the inspiration for using this big olâ butterfly!
USEIT2022: still using up that Basic Grey pad, first use of the pack of die cuts and the sentiment stamp.

Wow this is a stunning card - as someone who spends a lot of time with butterflies - this looks so real. Great case! I always struggle with how to use these large images/dies.
