Step 2:
Fold the scrapbooking paper by the middle to obtain a 30 x 15 cm card (see 1). Open it, turn it and fold it once again by the middle so that you obtain 4 folded squares when you open the sheet (See 2)
When the sheet is open, fold it from a corner to the opposite one keeping the motives side of the sheet inside of your new folded triangle. (See 3)

Step 3:
Open the sheet letting the motives side on the table. Hang the 2 not folded corners and move them closer to obtain naturally a 15 x 15 cm.
Open the sheet so that the motive side is up and that the not folded squares are on the left top and on the right bottom. Trace a guide line with a pencil 4 cm away from the left side and the bottom side). Erase the little shaped square at the left bottom. Glue the ribbon on the guide lines (red lines) so that the middle of the ribbon is glued on the crossing of the guide lines and that 10 cm of ribbon remain at the left top side and at the right bottom side.Turn the sheet keeping the motives side on the table and so that you can see the ribbon remaining at the left top side and at the right bottom side. Glue the cut dark square and then the white one on the right bottom folded square one up the other one. Assemble the Butterfly, glue it on the front card & finish by decorating with the flowers, inside and outside. You can create relief with double adhesive foam bricks and stick a tiny envelop inside to send money or kind notes.
