Butterfly Easel Card

I love making easel cards, so I couldn't wait to get started on my card for the current Butterfly Challenge. I had  a Hunkydory topper sheet and matching card, and by coincidence a pad of Hunkydory toppers happened to have some sheets of a matching design which gave me a bit more material to play with.




I made a double easel card with the larger panel angled. I cut two butterflies from two of the separate topper sheets to match the ones already printed on the card, and layered them up with foam pads to add interest to the less heavily decorated side of the base, arranging the upper one to also act as a rest for the smaller easel. At this point I realised that the butterflies actually contained all the colour elements of the wheel, as well as pink, so of course I had to work in an embossing folder and an edge, didn't it? The background for the smaller easel and the rest for the larger one   were the perfect opportunities. So once again I'm claiming a Full House!
