Kate’s Beautiful Butterfly Card!

- Nancy Krueger 3 Comments

Hello Fawnatics Friends! We hope you are having fun with our new challenge to make 3D cards! Kate joins us today to share a beautiful card with a 3D design that is made with just some well-placed folds!

Kate started with a 12 x 12 sheet of Let’s Polka in the Meadow Grasshopper Polka paper and by varying the mountain and valley folds on the layers of paper, she created a gorgeous card with lots of dimension!

I just love how the butterflies appear to flying out of the center of the card! Kate mounted the Mini Pop-Up Butterflies on strips of acetate to get this awesome effect!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful dimensional card design, Kate! It’s amazing!

Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we will keep the rules few!

Our awesome Design Team has some fabulous inspiration for you!

Samantha C used the stitched cut outs in our Magic Color Slider die set to frame the cute critters from Hay There! The fun sentiment dies are found in Small Stitched Envelope, Stitched Gift Card Pocket and Magic Color Slider! The pastel backdrops are Watercolor Wishes papers.

Kate‘s card set is quick and beautiful! She used colorful patterned paper, Scripty Hello and Scripty Thanks and embellished with Spring Sprig! So sweet and lovely!

Karin made a cute gift set of cards for various occasions! The Toadally Awesome frogs look so adorable as the stars of Karin’s Outside In Stitched Circle window card designs! She tied them up with our signature Lawn Fawn cord! (We use this cord to tie up our retail orders before we send them out to you!)

Franci’s card set is so charming! She stamped Gingham Backdrops with our pretty Minty Fresh ink to create a lovely background for the Easter Party images! She combined the sentiment in Easter Party with a Happy Happy Happy sentiment stamped in Sunflower ink!

Jessica made a colorful set of get well cards using Gotta Have Gingham papers and our Get Well Soon mini set! She color matched the ink to the gingham shades!

Cheerful paper patterns and our adorable Meow You Doin’ kitties make Christy‘s bright card set extra special!

Samantha M made multiples of one gorgeous watercolor card design! I love the texture in the cardstock and the beautifully colored Gleeful Gardens images!

Joyce‘s joyful card set welcomes Spring with our Easter Party cuties in a happy scene and pretty Perfectly Plaid Spring papers!

Jenn‘s fabulous card set features Simply Celebrate, Simply Sentiments and some of our Scripty word dies! I love the awesome rainbow colors framed with Black Licorice cardstock!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next two weeks and of course our Featured Fawnatics and Random Winner for Challenge 25 tomorrow!
