FBW Let Your Dreams Take Flight

Welcome to this week's Flutter By Wednesday!  The challenge this week is to use the paper piecing technique and to include a butterfly, fairy or angel, of course!  If you play with us, and I hope you do, please link up your creation directly to InLinkz on the Flutter By Wednesday blog.
I used the SCS sketch SC280 to create this card - a real challenge for me - this took me forever trying to figure out what papers to use for all the layers - totally out of my comfort zone!!  I paper pieced the butterfly with some of the papers that I used for the layers.  All the patterned papers are from an Archivers pack.
Thanks for coming by!
Supplies: Stamps - PaperTrey Butterfly Dreams; Ink - Memento Tuedo Black; Paper - Bazzill, Archivers Patterned paper; Misc- Dimensionals
