September PTI blog hop
The technique that I learned that I am using, is to use a strip of vellum across the front of the card. It is such a 'light' material that doesn't take away from the other elements on the card (like the gorgeous impression plate), but also anchors the butterfly, and provides a good place for a sentiment.
