SC285 Butterflies and Fairy Tales
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: shellied

 This was a lovely sketch challenge for a wedding card with this sentiment! Thank you, TexasGrammy and Rox71!

I masked the words of the sentiment and stamped them on separate squares of Real Red paper (that was a trick because the words are "wavy"). I watercolored the butterflies ("Elegant Butterflies" from Whipper Snapper Designs), and faux stitched around the edges with my tracing wheel and ruler. The card measures 4 1/4" square.
