I started with the IO gingham background stamp. I inked it in versa mark on blue card and sprinkled with white embossing powder. I stamped the IO sentiment on white card and stamped leaves and flowers around it. I used my paper crimper to give some texture on some blue card stock and a Martha Stewart punch to add a little more texture.
I cut two of the large butterflies and layered them together, and added a rhinestone.
