Flurry of butterflies



 I know there are a lot of names for this technique, where you cut a die-cut shape from a panel and elevate it on foam tape. This is the first time I've tried it, and I'm pleased with the results. The butterfly is popped up on two additional layers of cardstock cut with the die, plus foam tape. (The video I saw called it two-tier technique or something similar.) 

The butterfly die is from SSS, the butterfly stamp is Hero Arts (I think), and the ink is a fluid chalk ink.

This card is entered in these challenges:
