Butterfly Collar Card

Hello Nomad friends.  I have had a fun and productive scrappy weekend.  So nice to get a few UFO's finished and hit scrap mountain for extra scrappy satisfaction.  I've been wanting to try Mrs A's Collar Fold.  I just went for it, and then I had to trim my collars a bit cos they ended up going outside the card front, but generally, despite the curious mix of supplies, I think I am happy with this.

I used Butterfly patterned card from Kort og Godt for my card base.   So that's the butterflies sorted.  And the collar fold.  I've added some metal hearts on small foam pads as detail and my Cardinal aspect.  I found this Kort of Godt vintage image which I had already fussy cut.  I coloured the flowers in her hair with a Promarker to give me some Cornflower colour.  The dark blue butterflies at the bottom of the card were stealing her thunder so I added a vellum layer to mute them.  I added a Celedon green layer inside the card and added the thanks die cut to give me more cornflower and  some coral.  Done.  Ah, but I missed the circle!  Say la doo dah......

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz
