Spring Greeting Card -“Butterflies”
|
|
|
|
This is a card that is fresh and elegant for the spring months. If you have a Sizzix Sidekick diecutter and the butterfly motif, then you can create this card in no time. Otherwise, it is just as easy to cut out your own butterflies and follow the steps to complete the card. Combine pretty scrapbook papers and matching cardstock to create a card that fits your style.
