 Doily Butterfly I love the versatility of 'Washi' tape or masking tape for card making.  This card uses one of the gorgeous butterfly stamps in SU's Papillon Potpourri Stamp Set with matching butterfly punch, a paper doily and some strips of tape. For these 'teen rock' birthday cards, I used a strip of musical masking tape as a 'banner' for the stamped elements. Just to let you know, my good friend, Natalie , has a selection of my cards for sale at   A Beam of Beauty on High , 34 High Street, Launceston, TAS. Thanks for stopping by,

I've made a scallop circle easel card and a rectangular easel card/calendar before so I thought it was time to try a square one!!
