Butterfly Thank You




This is my last submission for this week's ColourQ cQc #137.  I promise.   But, I don't promise to stop using these colors together.   Too yummy.  I made an extra piece of striped background paper when I made this card.  It was the perfect element for me to use with my new butterfly die, sent to me by my friend Jeanne from A Kept Life


Isn't that butterfly just gorgeous?  It is so delicate and pretty in real life.  I cut it out of Winter Wisteria paper, and then adhered just the middle section to a butterfly that I made by tracing the outline of the die on Hawaiian Shores paper.  

Thank you so much, Jeanne.  I hope you like this card, which is on it's way to you right now.


Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps:  Distressed Stripes, Beautiful butterflies
Paper:  White, Winter Wisteria, Hawaiian Shores
Other:  Serendipity Butterfly die, Heart Border Die
Ink:  Amuse Slate, Versacolor Turquoise, PTI Simply chartreuse, Winter Wisteria


Thanks for Visiting
