Butterfly Party--Invitations

Here are some butterfly invites for a 4 yr old Butterfly birthday party.
I am currently working on the party so games, food, and goodie bags to come!



Instructions
1-found butterfly pattern I liked online enlarged to 5 in
and printed onto white card stock; cut out
2-traced onto printed paper/card stock and cut out
3-glued butterfly to a 4x4 piece of coordinating card stock
4-traced body of template butterfly and traced onto brown paper,
cut out and glued to main butterfly
5-glued invite info on back of papers
6-using a straight edge; folded the butterfly wings back and put dimensional adhesive underneath to give more depth to butterfly wings.
7-Hot glued piper cleaners onto heads of butterfly for antennae.
I used 1/2 of a regular length pipe cleaner and twirled around my finger.
The back of the invite said
Flutter on over to **Name** on **Date**
for her 4th Birthday Party!
The butterflies will be captured at 10:00 am
and released at 11:30 am.
Our cocoon is located at
**address**

Because of the shape and dimension of the invite, these are meant to be hand delivered!
