Today, I am hosting the challenge over at Bitten By the Bug. For today's challenge everyone has to make some thing using a butterfly that you cut using your Cricut. I chose butterflies because I like them almost as much as I like flowers and unicorns!
My project is made using the Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge. I just love the pop up butterfly on the inside. When I was designing it, I just kept thinking about monarch butterflies. I didn't want them all over the card because all of the orange and black might look Halloweenish. Anyway, I decided I would make the gorgeous big pop up butterfly on the inside a monarch and I really love how it turned out!
