I used a 2" piece of glossy cardstock for each color and then used an MS punch. I stamped the butterflies on the same paper and now I have some gloriously shimmery butterflies that don't need anything else but some bling for their bodies.
The stamped sentiment is an old stamp from Stampendious. I added some faux stitching around the die cut. There are 2 ribbons; one with some stitching and a yellow satin. I used the swiss dots embossing folder on the background.
