Card size: 10.5cm x 15cm

Step 1:   
From the Written Home paper, cut a 30cm x 10cm strip from the top section.

Step 2:   
From the right corner, cut a 14.5cm x 10cm piece. Distress the edges.

Step 3:
Ink the edges. Cut a piece of white cardstock 30cm x 10.5cm and fold in half. Adhere the panel to the card front.

Step 4:
Using a left over piece of paper from the left side of Written Home, cut the 7cm Scalloped Heart Die from the reverse side and the slightly smaller Stitched Heart die from the front design. Ink the edges of both hearts.

Step 5:
From the left side of Written Home paper, use both the Stitched Heart and matching Scalloped Heart dies and cut both at the same time to achieve a delicate scalloped heart frame. Secure with washi tape when die cutting to prevent movement. Adhere to card front using Foam Mounts between both layers. Die cut some stamps from the Open Dreams paper and adhere over the hearts and across the card. Fussy cut the butterfly from Open Dreams paper, shape the wings and ink the edges. Adhere to card front. Cut the flower tops from 2 Creative Cuts kangaroo paw stems and use as antennae for the butterfly.

Step 6:
Wrap Gilded Thread Twine around the left of the card and tie off.
