Hi! This is for today's Featured Stamper - jaydekay. I can't believe I've missed this woman's gallery! It is amazing! There were sooo many cards I could have chosen to case (and in fact may well case another...) but I finally settled on this one: splash of color by jaydekay at Splitcoaststampers
I loved the idea of a black and white card with a colourful butterfly - I am a HUGE butterfly fan (if I could put one on every card I would... lol!).
I changed the following things:
1) Used different stamps (all Verve) - I stuck with the silhouette and butterfly combo.
2) Changed the rectangle to a circle
3) Left off the ribbon
4) Used patterned paper to stamp the butterflies onto instead of colouring.
5) Added more butterflies
6) Added paper piercing
I used a black stardust pen to add highlights to some of the silhouette images so it looks nice and sparkly IRL. I also added black stickles to the butterfly bodies, but sadly you can't see the sparkle in the photo!
Hope you like...
