I covered the front of the gatefold card base with gold, pearlised paper. The gingham paper was snippets left over from a previous Stampin' Up project. I used a piece of a double sided adhesive sheet to stick a piece of the gold, pearlised paper to a stiff piece of white card, before die cutting with a Spellbinders scalloped circle. The white circle and the butterfly are also Spellbinder die cuts. The butterfly was cut in the gold paper and also in dark grey, pearlised paper (which I hope is okay for the gun metal colour). I put the grey butterfly behind the gold one, so that the the grey peeped through the holes. Two clear gems on the ends of the butterfly's antennae finished off my card.
This photo shows the inside of my card.
