BUTTERFLY

This week's TicTacToe#122 board was designed by ME!!  I decided to go across the bottom with stencil, vellum and butterfly.  I wanted to do something with a vellum butterfly and finally decided on using alcohol ink on a piece of vellum.  I like the dull finish of vellum rather than shiny yupo paper.

 

My piece of vellum turn out so pretty, but after die cutting my butterfly, it was very floppy - which I didn't like.  So I added it to a piece of cardstock for more sturdiness.  Lightly stenciled the background and added some spatters of gold.  My sentiment is embossed in gold.  The card is a mini slimline - 3.25x6.25.

I hope I'll see you in the gallery this week - the winner will be a future guest designer.

Thanks for visiting today.
