PTI JULY CHALLENGE

The PTI challenge for today has a definite vintage look - something I haven't done in a long time, but had a go anyway tonight.





I stamped the gingko leaves from PTI Harvest Berries using my my MISTI so I could get the shades of green a bit varied.  Then I die cut the large butterfly (I honestly don't know where it came from), sponged it with distress inks and inlaid it partially.  The wings are popped up with two layers of foam tape.  Added the HA sentiment stamped on vellum and done.   I am also entering this in Just Add Ink's challenge #272 which is butterflies.

Thanks for stopping by and always enjoy reading your kind comments.  Betty
