Challenge #98 = Anything Goes Featured Critter theme

welcome to our next Challenge here at Critter Crazy Challenge with our theme "Anything Goes with a Featured Critter." (AGFC)
 real or fantasy


The fold is from a tutorial by Lisa Curcio on youtube.

My featured critter is ... butterflies 

I prepared all the pieces and started assembling.  In hindsight, I should have used the beautiful butterfly paper on the small card on the front, and the floral on the background card as most of the butterfly paper is covered.  However I did use them as the inspiration for the embellishments (snippets of card) and also used the snippet on the inside banner.

It was really hard to photograph because of all the different opening pieces.

It is a very easy card to make using the coloured background card to form a border for the We R MemoryKeepers patt.paper.   Diecuts for the butterflies (a magazine freebee), a punch (Crafts-Too) to make the tail of the banner, stamped sentiments (unknown) the front one is heat embossed, and a stacked oval for the front.  Snippets of leftovers and stash are used for the inside, small banner, and butterflies.  Gem from stash to finish.
