Handmade Card - White Butterfly

This is another handmade birthday card that can be done in minutes. Very easy design.






To make this card you will need:

  • K&Company Butterflies - I purchased it in Hobbycraft -  http://direct.hobbycraft.co.uk/products-Personal-Impressions-Butterfly-Grand-Adhesion-%C2%A0_345172.htm
  • 3 Adhesive gems in silver (I used Hobbycraft gems sizes 3 mm)
  • Green card paper (9 x 9 cm)
  • White card paper (10 x 10cm)
  • White card paper (15 x 30cm)
  • Double sided tape
  • "Happy Birthday" outline sticker 
  • Yellow card paper (15 x 15cm)
  • Craft foam pads (I used Stix 2mm thick)
  • Craft corner punch (I have had mine for a very long time so you might not be able to purchase the same one, however I found couple of nice craft punches that would also work well with this design - see pictures below - link is added with the pictures)

   Take white card 15cm x 30cm and fold it in half. Take a yellow card paper (size 15cm x 15cm) and using double sided tape attach it to the white card. Attach green card paper (9cm x 9cm), again using double sided tape, to the white card paper (10 x 10cm) and then attach the butterfly to the middle of the green card paper. Cut corners of the green/white card using corner punch and attach it to the yellow card paper using craft foam pads. Attach three 3mm silver gems onto the yellow card. Add “Happy birthday" sticker to the card. 


Colour variations:

1) Peach and pale green colour

3) Pale yellow and sage green colour



4) Orange and sage green colour
