Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I got another card done over the weekend. I'm hoping to get it into
a challenge before it closes.
I found an alcohol inked piece of vellum in my stash and used it with my
Stitched Butterfly. I also cut a plain piece of vellum to put underneath to five
this butterfly a little more body.
The square piece that the butterfly is perched on was a leftover from watercoloring
a leaf branch.
It's all added to a card base made of Tim Holtz watercolor paper.
The stitches didn't show up well so I used a white gel pen over them to make
them stand out.
Challenges:
Just Us Girls #767 - Mood Board below. I was inspired by the green butterfly
Krafty Chicks #760 - CAS
Seize the Birthday #301 - Anything That Flies

I need to remember to use alcohol inks with vellum too - they produce beautiful panels! I love the green and the butterfly looks simple and beautiful. Thank you so much for joining the Seize the Birthday challenge with the lovely card!
Bonnie, you know I've never met a butterfly I didn't love - your pretty green vellum is perfect for its wings! What a beautiful way to send birthday wishes!

Oooh the vellum adds a beautiful softness, Bonnie! This is fantastic. Thanks so much for playing along at Just Us Girls!
Such a pretty butterfly in green, Bonnie. I also like the way you grounded him with the faint appearance of grass. That is one of your talents for sure. You are always so good at the extra details. Thanks for playing at Seize the Birthday!
