Merci

Hello friends!
    I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. I had to attend weddings on four successive weekends last month and was relieved to have the last one free and to spend some time crafting. Here's what I made.

Here's a close up of the butterfly

Supplies used: 

Merci recycled from the Merci chocolate box see image HERE

Gold strip under the merci recycled from the side of a gold bar chocolate box see image HERE

Anita's outline stickers - gold butterfly

parchment paper 

felt tip pens

    The butterfly outline sticker was placed on the parchment paper and coloured on the reverse and only the body & antennae were adhered to the card. A tiny butterfly sticker was used after the letter 'i' to cover up the 'R' trademark symbol that was there.

Thanks for visiting. I'll be back soon.
