Happy Birthday

Nearing the end of the month and lucky I checked the close date for The Butterfly Challenge - #144 - A for Accordion Fold..... my card had become hidden under the desk mess...
I used all seven elements of the challenge.

Scored and cut A4 white card to give four folds on my Accordion folded card and used a lacy edged die to add interest to the card... needed to continue the lacy edge so cut an inner white panel, die cut the edge and used a butterfly embossing folder so it wasn't just plain card .  Chose three patterned papers.. and added stamped music script and mini butterflies to the aquamarine and apricot papers then sized and cut them to fit panel..... I decided my apricot and pink didn't go too well so attached them to opposite folded sides so they were concealed.  To finish I stamped and clear embossed the sentiment, die cut with a fancy label and sponged ink on the edge.  To finish the card I added three die cut butterflies cut from shiny metallic paper - gold and iridescent blue and aqua glitter card.

I am also playing along with AAA Birthday challenge - Game #15 ...  3D.
Thanks for stopping by my blog  ---   have a Happy Day and stay safe
