I was trying to think of something different for several challenges - Addicted to CAS (autumn), ModSquad (butterflies) and Day of the Month (thankful) - and came up with a flurry of butterflies in autumnal colors. Also, have had these butterfly stamps and dies and never used them.
I stamped and die cut multiple butterflies on several pieces of pp and then played around with placement on the kraft background. Decided it needed some texture so embossed a smaller piece of kraft. After putting it together, I spattered with gold and white paint and made the bodies of the butterflies gold too. My card is a mini slimline - 3.25"x6.25".
Thanks for stopping by today.
Just love the texture behind your quartet of beautiful butterflies, Betty! The gold touches and splatters look amazing!!
