Butter Fly!

Something good to eat

Butter flies out the window

Where did the bread go?
~ a haiku composed by the kids after I told them a butter fly joke. LOL!

My girls always get excited when they see a butterfly. They really like them. So I thought I would make a "butter fly"card just for them.

I think they're gonna love it. *giggle*

Here's how I did it:

To make a butter fly, I combined the butter image with a helicopter rotor. Using the Release Compound Path/Make Compound Path command, I modified the butter so that I don't have to guess where to glue the eyes. Cutting the eyes and the mouths from the top layer makes the positioning of the facial features more precise.

The card base was printed and trimmed manually while the main image was cut out of different colored cardstock and layered together.

Here's a random picture that I'm inserting into this post just because. These are erasers on a mini Ikea Expedit! The lid of the cup noodles actually open to reveal the noodles inside. So Kawaii!

Now let's watch my butter fly!
