Begining with a "B"

 Time for a new challenge at Allsorts.  This month the theme is
beginning with a "B" or anything goes, chosen by Ellie. 

 


  I went with butterflies.  I started by making a shaker card, patterned paper
behind the sequins is dry embossed, I die cut a window from patterned paper and
layered it  on top to form a window.  I topped it with die cuts (listed below), swirl 
and birthday greeting but from snippets.
