 Directions
Start with a piece of 9"X6" royal blue card stock.
Cut a piece of 8.5"X 5.5" piece of burnt sienna piece of card stock.
Adhere the burnt sienna piece of card stock to the royal blue piece of card stock.

Cut a piece of 3.5"X 4.0" piece of royal blue card stock.
Ink a large pattern stamp with embossing ink. Stamp onto the blue card stock. Immediately after stamping the image, sprinkle Piccolo Gilded Rose Metallic Enamel Powder over the stamped image and emboss the image.  When cool adhere the embossed image to the upper middle part of card.


                                                                          Next step
 Cut a piece of 3"X 2" piece of burnt sienna card stock and adhere to the embossed blue square. Tear one edge of the burnt sienna paper. Stamp a sentiment on the piece of torn burnt sienna paper. Distress the edges of the card stock with dark blue ink and adhere to the lower middle part of card.
 
Cut a 3"X3"piece of royal blue card stock. Ink a large butterfly stamp with embossing ink. Stamp onto blue card stock. Immediately after stamping the image, sprinkle Piccolo Gilded Rose Metallic Enamel Powder over the stamped image and emboss the image. Mat the butterfly image with a piece of blue card stock. Adhere the matted image to the front of the card. I turned the card to the side to show how the Gilded Rose shines...beautiful.
 
Carefully remove a butterfly from the Birds and Butterflies and Flourishes Card Decor and More. Apply a coat of the Piccolo Embossing Powder Adhesive to the front of the Piccolo Butterfly Card Decor and More Chipboard. Immediately after applying the adhesive, sprinkle Gilded Rose Enamel Powder over the entire surface of the butterfly and emboss with a heat tool. When cool adhere to lower right of card.

Fold the card in half and score the middle of the paper using a scoring board. Distress the left side of the card with dark blue ink.
