Green Butterflies

I don't know about you, but I'm getting sick and tired of getting all those flyers in the mail from politicians. So, I decided to recycle one. Wish I had thought of it before I kept throwing them away before even reading them. (Well, actually we recycle them anyway). So I cut the scalloped oval from one, added MS punched butterflies and did the rubber band technique on the background in Memento Black and Bamboo Shoot. Sentiment is from a GKD stamp duo.

Judy, you are an amazing woman!  The things you think of!  I recycle, too, but never this creatively!! So, I guess this is your "GREEN" card in more ways than one, eh?

Every day IS Earth day after all...  ;)  I really think you have a knack for this background technique Judy - this looks AWESOME!  Thanks for playing along with my challenge again!

I LOVE the black & green together, it's rather gorgeous, aye?  That ribbon is a PERFECT match--it's awesome!  Love all of your butterflies and I'm a sucker for that sentiment!  xo~

My first thought was..green upsidedown butterflies..really?  But on closer look this is really pretty.  And recycled to boot.  I love the butterfly on the dandelions and the background is awesome.  I have never done that one although I have seen tutorials on it.  The ribbon is perfect also.  It pays to look close!  Really really pretty!!!!!

Beautiful, Judy!  Love all the bright colours, and your background is fabulous! I do love how you've recycled as well.  Even your ribbon is a perfect fit.
