I decided to make a 2nd card with more "white space" lol . . . I die cut the TH corner 2X from 110 cardstock and layered together and adhered to my card base. I retrieved some of the diamond shaped dropouts - covered them with clear glue then ultra fine white glitter. Once Dry, I set them back into the corner. I wanted to give a more finished look to my corner cut, so die cut 2 recollections flourishes for a more ornamental look.
I die cut and layered my greeting then covered it with Ultrafine white glitter. I embossed a piece of vellum with swiss dots then cut my butterfly from that. Die cut the ribs from 110 cardstock but fussy cut away most of the inside so the dotted vellum would show through. I rolled the wings over a pencil to give them some "lift" then adhered just the body to my card base. Finished with a strip of white pearls.
BTW - if you have a preference between my 2 cards note it in the comments, in case I draw your name for the Teapot Tickle Exchange.

This is so beautiful and I love how you filled in some of the spaces in the die cut with glitter.

I absolutely love this, Linda. I need to use those TH dies more. This reminds me so much of wedding cakes, I've made several with decorative piping, and the first one I ever made had butterflies on it. But they were coloured .
