Big Bold Butterfly for Paper Players #299

HI Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a color challenge for us: Initially I had been tempted to use this colors to make a masculine card and was even more tempted to make a card using the stars and strips, but......
