And here is my card -

My Scrappy Scrap Challenge card!

Hey All,
This time I have a new card for the Scrappy Scrap challenge. For this challenge, Shalini had sent us few scraps and this is what I had received -

And this is what I made -

It's a Easel card with a color changing butterfly. Here's a video to view the changing colours.-

It's the first time I experimented with acetate sheet and as soon as I saw the jute flower, I thought of making Easel card. We were not supposed to use anything else other than the scraps, cardstock, single stamp,punches (only on card stock or scraps), adhesives and paints/writing material.  So, for rotating the wheel, I used a paper made brad. I will soon post a tutorial on this.

I hope you like this card :)
Warm Regards,
Piyu
