Stitching Cut File 2 of 36: Butterfly Frame

The 2nd of the 36 Cut Files for Stitching is a Butterfly Frame!

Design Team Member Audrey Mutschall created this beautiful page! She says, "I paired this beautiful Butterfly Frame with the Garden Shoppe collection and I love how delicate it turned out! I used white cardstock for the background and stitched the butterflies using a chainlink stitch for the body and wings and a backstitch and French knots for the antennae. I had a garden photo of my daughter in mind for this layout, so I used embroidery floss in coordinating shades of pink, green, and blue for the stitching. With the stitching complete, I added a large photo in the center of the page, which is mounted on a scalloped frame, cut from Paper 19. I embellished the frame with fussy cut flowers from Paper 5, and added a title using a Foam Phrase Sticker and some fussy cut sentiments from Paper 23. To embellish the butterfly frame, I added a few layered butterflies using Paige’s Layered Butterfly Cut File. Lastly, I added some sequins for a little sparkle and shine! I absolutely loved making this layout, and I hope it inspires you to stitch some butterflies using this gorgeous Butterfly Frame from the 36 Cut Files for Stitching by Paige!"

Here is another layout made with today's Butterfly Frame from the 36 Cut Files for Stitching by Guest Designer Sammy Schoos! She says, "For this layout I used the matching thread for Paige's Splendid collection. I stitched the wings of the butterflies with a chainlink stitch and their body with a normal stitch. I hope that spring will arrive soon! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!"
