Recently I had a box of chipboard butterflies that I gave to my twin granddaughters. However the box had come with an uneven number of butterflies. Figuring that that could be a problem when they went to divide them, I took one out and used it myself! lol Problem solved.
You know those little ribbons that come sewn into the shoulder seams on the inside of women’s tops? Well mine always get cut off and put into the ribbon drawer. Used some of them here on this card.
Thanks so much from dropping by today. Hope you have a great weekend!

Your butterfly looks so pretty! what a clever idea for repurposing those little ribbons.
Way to re-use those ribbons, and how clever too! Love this pretty butterfly, and especially that great embossed background! NJ!
Very pretty Susan. I agree problem solved as that is how the boys are when dividing things. ha! Did you ever see the peanut butter commercial where the one boy gets to cut the sandwich and has a snicker on his face? Then his mom lets his brother pick the half he wants. LOL That is what I do with the boys, works everytime with even portions! ;0)
Gorgeous card Susan. I always cut them off but never thought to save them. Hope you are enjoying the nice weather we are finally getting.
Love the sparkle in the butterfly, and the recycling is a great idea, I do that too *giggle*
Love the woodgrain and such a fabulous butterfly too 🙂
A lovely card, andi am so glad to see I’m not the only one who does that with the ribbons!
Very pretty card! I’m glad to hear I’m not the only one that saves those ribbons! LOL Thanks!
The card is so happy and lovely! I love the part about even-ing out the butterflies! And the ribbon is a very clever idea too! 🙂
Oh, yes, who can throw away ribbon? Beautiful card with the chipboard butterfly! Love the realistic look of the Wooden embossing folder.
so pretty, love the paper used to decorate the butterfly and like how he is landing on the wood texture background. Great recycling idea, never thought of using those straps for ribbon treatment on cards!
Very pretty! Love the wood distressed look! What a clever idea on using those ribbons!
very pretty card! I hate those ribbons and cut them out too. lol! But my fave is the pink ribbon handles on the Victoria Secret bags! 😉
Beautiful, Susan! Love the colors and textures!
