I wish I could say this idea was mine, but I cased it from Card Creations "Start to Finish" edition of PaperCrafts Magazine from 2006. On pg. 55, by Melissa Phillips. She made the butterfly using the knotted ribbon as the butterfly's body, head, and antennae! How smart is she? Background made by stamping the flower from Sew Seasonal on and off of the caribbean coral paper with tea dye distress ink. Added rhinestones at the bottom, because I think a card with a butterfly needs bling somewhere!

Super cute. Thanks for sharing your inspiration for it also. The idea of the ribbon for the body of the butterfly is a great idea. You combined everything together so nicely.
