MASKING
Before cutting, paint your wood the desired color. This will be the main color of the butterfly. When dry, add a layer masking tape over the painted wood. |

CUT
Import the included designs as vector only, and cut out all the pieces. Cut the Frame file from wood making sure to mark all blue vectors, and completely cut all red vectors. Cut the Fabric file out of your decoritive fabric.You should have 4 Wood butterfly frames, A circular base, 2 semi circles, and 4 Fabric liners.
PAINTING
Peel the tape from the marked circles to expose small sections of the wood. This allows the remaining tape to act as a stencil protecting the main color.
Once all the accent marks are exposed, add a colored layer of paint
When this finishes drying, remove the masking tape to expose the 2 color design.
ASSEMBLE
Add glue to the back of the butterfly frame, and attach the fabric piece making sure that the decorative side is facing outwards.
Continue with the remaining 3 panels.
Add glue to the two semi circle sections, and attach this to the marked sections on the base. Also shown in next slide..
Attach 3 of the butterfly panels by inserting them into the slots.
Position the completed base assembly into the notches.
Well Done!
