The colors did not show up real well in this pic, but I wanted to make sure you could see the butterfly. I used a bone folder on each side of the butterflies body and then gently folded the wings up a little bit.

Thanks so much for your kind comments!!! It really was very easy. I did the crinkled chalks technique on both the background and the piece for the butterfly. Next I stamped the butterfly and the botanicals images from the navy chalk ink. THe butterfly in the black chalk ink. Then cut out the butterfly, used layer ease to mat and cut out the butterfly again. folded up the wings and mounted it on the card with dimensionals under the body. It really was very easy and I think I might have my customers do it at my next workshop. Hopefully sell some chalk ink pads at the same time!!
