the challenge spark---using negative spaces (beautiful butterfly)

This week, Jane from White Orchid has challenged Tara from Country Girl Creates and me to design a card using negative spaces. Generally we think of working with the punched out shape rather than the hole it left behind in our paper! Well, here's my submission for this challenge. But I decided to add my die-cut butterfly onto my card anyway!

The Challenge Spark is our way to get fresh new ideas circling in our creative spaces. Jane, Tara and I take turns coming up with something new every week. Tara is asking us to show her something using a northern lights technique next week. I'm gonna have to study up on that one a bit before I share it! Hopefully I can take a teeny break from my pet butterflies for a few seconds soon!
