Did you notice all of the decorative circles in the Spotlight on Nature Dies? I refer to this one as the ‘paper plate’ die because the rippled edge reminds me of a paper plate. LOL. Which one is your favorite?

Let’s Create

1. Affix all stamps to acrylic blocks.
2. Fold and burnish card base at the score line using bone folder.

4. Add the Nature’s Sweetness dsp rectangle at the top of the card base about ¾” from the top and ½” from the right side of the card front. 
5. Stamp the leaf image using Mossy Meadow 2 times on the White panel.  Add the panel to the card front centered top to bottom and about ¼” from the right side of the card front. 
6. Stamp the butterfly using Azure Afternoon onto the scrap of white.  Use the 2 ¼” circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies to cut out the butterfly. 
7. Take a blender pen and pick up some Peach Pie scribble off just a little.  Use the blender pen to blend the colors. 
8. Add the circle to the left hand side of the card front so the side of the circle is even with the Mossy Meadow layer.
