INSTRUCTIONS:
1.  Cut your Flirty Flamingo card base at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″.  Score and fold at 4-1/4″.
2.  Cut your patterned paper at 2″ x 5-1/2″.  Attach to card base leaving about 1/8″ of the card base showing at the folded edge.
3.  Stamp your Butterfly on Sweet Sugarplum card stock:
~the large solid Butterfly shape in Sweet Sugarplum ink.
~the Butterfly center with the dots at the edges in Rich Razzleberry ink.
~the Butterfly outside edge stamp in Elegant Eggplant.
~Cut out your Butterfly with the large Butterfly Framelit.
~Stamp the Butterfly body in Elegant Eggplant.  I usually end up cutting off part of the body if I stamp first then cut.  So I have started stamping the wings, cutting it out with the Framelit, then stamping the body.
4.  Use your Big Shot with the Precision Base Plate and a FLAT cutting pad to cut out the smaller Butterfly from Vellum card stock.
5.  Fold both Butterfly’s wings next to the Butterfly body.  Attach together with Glue Dots.
6.  Stamp your saying in Rich Razzleberry ink.
7.  Position your Butterfly and attach it with Glue Dots on the back of the Butterfly Body.
