Butterfly Tower card

 Morning and my 3rd post today is for a GDT at Let's Craft and Create-thank you for the invite Helen and the challenge is Beautiful Butterflies.


I made a Pinwheel Tower card and used papers from Crafters Companion(I bought a bargain box with about 400 12"x12" sheets from a decluttering site  so have loads to get through lol, the added butterflies were cut from the papers and I made a tag to write a message on and added glossy accents to the butterfly, twine and ribbon from stash.








Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

  27. The pinwheel tower design looks incredible here, with each panel showing off those rich papers in a way that feels both coordinated and full of movement. The fussy‑cut butterflies add such a polished touch, especially with the glossy accents catching the light, and the matching tag ties the whole presentation together beautifully. The mix of textures from the twine and ribbon gives the project even more dimension, making this a striking interpretation of the Beautiful Butterflies theme.
