What a stunning card! I would have never thought of placing the buttons behind the negative space of the butterflies. They give them an effervescent, high-spirited effect as if they could lift off the page. I'm not sure if I'd sew them on or glue them on, although the thread does seem to tie the card stock together with the buttons themselves. I love the way the wings of the butterflies are echoed in the curves of the white belly band. The Calico Shine Mister Huey's was the perfect finishing touch!
