I was in Primark yesterday lunchtime and saw this necklace.
The cogs started whirling …….. those butterflies would look cracking on a card I thought …….
And this is the result …….
The necklace cost £2.50 and had 8 butterflies on – a bargain, when you think what the equivalent in a craft shop would be!
The card blank is made using an ivory linen card (from The Papermill Shop). The background paper is from the Passport range from Making Memories and the scalloped square is made using a Nestabilities die.
