Vellum Prairie Butterflies by Jean Okimoto

Remember vellum? Layer a pair of purple vellum Prairie Butterflies over a Fuchsia Plaid square for a bright summer birthday celebration. Hi, Jean here with some vintage vellum to match a Fuchsia Plaid 6x6/

Cut Prairie Butterflies from purple vellum. Plain white vellum inked with Brilliance Peartlescent Purple and air-dried can be used if you don't have purple vellum for the butterflies and greeting square. Attach lined doublestick tape behind the violet Rainbow Reflections 6x6 and cut the wing accents and antennae/body.

Don't assemble the butterflies yet - it's easier to layer and attach the pieces directly to the background.

Cut a Fuchsia Plaid 6x6 with the 2-¾" Square Basics die. Cut purple vellum with the 1-¼" Square Basics die.

Cut white cardstock to 4-¼" x 9-¾". Score it at 4-¼". Attach the diecuts. Add a Happy Birthday Foil Greetings White Circle Tab. Add clear Christmas Fairy Jewels. Cut an A2-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing. Cut a ½" x 3-½" plaid strip for a side accent.
