Intro: Embellishing this large wooden letter came easily to Wendy when she used regular and reverse stenciling on her die cut butterflies. To bring it all together, she added a bit of ribbon and a few buttons.

Instructions:

• Use Zip Dry glue to adhere patterned paper to W. Trim around shape with scissors.
