I have been wanting to try a card that had some sort of pop up or 3D element. I decided on having a butterfly or buggie of some kind springing up from a flower element. The challenge this week at Raise the Bar was very springy so I thought this idea was perfect for that! I started with the sketch posted over at i{heart}2stamp. Then I took a green wire and coiled it around a pencil. I took a butterfly shaped button (the kind with a loop on the back) and wrapped one end around and through the loop as tightly as I could. Then I attached the other end to the center of the card and placed 2 primas on top with a dimentional. Top with a cute polka dotted button...and voila............
