Butterfly Happy Birthday

I have no idea what the style of this card would be, perhaps clean and layered. I am entering it in The Card Concept Challenge #7, use a butterfly. I love the bluish tones how the butterfly seems to shine.

I am also lately enamored with white on white.  I cut one butterfly and one butterfly shadow image from a spellbinder set. The butterfly image was cut on cardstock with double sided adhesive sheet. The butterfly shadow was cut into a card panel.

I adhered blue glitter paper between the card base and the layer panel, which had been die cut and dry embossed.  The butterfly image was dipped into rock candy distress glitter. A vellum strip was white heat embossed with a Simon Says Stamp birthday sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by. The challenge is open until Monday, 4-14-14 at 12 noon pacific time, US.
