Making 3D Butterfly Ephemera

Learn how easy it is to make 3D butterfly ephemera with this free printable. #butterflies #printable

Butterflies are popular for crafting and these 3D butterflies are fun to make. Download the free printable and make as many as you’d like. Even if you don’t have a current use, make some to have in your stash. You won’t regret it!

After printing out the free PDF file, fussy cut the butterflies out or use a Brother Scan n Cut to make the job easier. I used flower stamens for the antennae, a bit of glue to stack the butterfly shapes, and I added glitter glue to the edges of each butterfly. The video tutorial below will show you the easy process.

The photo above shows the butterflies at an angle. You can see the dimension of each one and the glitter on the edges.
