Instructions: Layout is 12x12". Black cardstock is your background. Cut a strip of the light polka dot pattern that is 2.5x11". Distress the edges and adhere to the left hand side of the layout using crafty foam tape. Cut 2 strips each of the dark coral, orange and teal patterned papers that are 1.5x8.5". Distress the edges and adhere to the right hand side of the layout slightly spaced apart, using crafty foam tape. Cut 5 pieces of the tan patterned paper that are 1.5x5.5". Distress the edges and adhere on the right hand side of the layout on top of the color strips using crafty foam tape again.
Find and cut out the scalloped orange border strip and adhere to the left hand side of the layout. Cut a strip of white cardstock that is 1x12". Distress the edges and adhere next to the border strip. Mat the 4x6 photo in white and black cardstock. Add white photo corners to the photo. Adhere to the right hand side of the layout using 3D foam squares. Find and cut out the light mini tag using the coordinating die. Add above the matted photo and add a black burlap string bow. Die cut 1 small white doily die image and adhere to the right of the matted photo. Adhere the title glitter word to the top section of tan patterned paper and add the other portion of the title using smaller letter stickers just above.
Stamp 2 sets of the Butterfly Dreams Border using an embossing pad, add black embossing powder and heat. Die cut these out. Stamp 1 large Fluttering Butterfly image again using the embossing pad and black embossing powder. Die cut. Add color to the butterfly images using Chameleon Pens. The butterfly bodies I used brown (BR5 Bark). The floral puffs I added color using OR3 Tangerine. I used a mixture of OR3 Tangerine, RD2 Red Coral and the Red Coral Color Top to add color to the wings of the butterflies.
Adhere one full butterfly border to the bottom of the white cardstock border using 3D foam squares. Cut just the top portion of the other butterfly border off and adhere to the top of the white cardstock border again using 3D foam squares. Adhere the large butterfly in the middle of the borders again using 3D foam squares. Add a few black gems.
