My first easel cards

I was desperate to have a go at easel cards having seen one on display at a workshop. With two birthdays over on MSE and struggling to think what to do I decided to have a play. I saw this lovely paper, I have a soft spot for butterflies, and went from there. I seemed to spend an age trying not to over titivate but am not sure whether it looks classy or like it's missing something. The only sentiments I had were ones I had stamped and punched at a workshop and they were too big. I therefore cut them down and layered them which I think looks ok.
