Ok, so yes, this was done last night... it just took me a while to decide if it needed something else... and yes it did, it needed a little brown chalk to tone down the bright white cs.
I stamped the image using a versamark ink pad and used chalk to magically make the image appear. The dp is from a Tim Holtz stack and it is the front and back of the same piece of paper. I love this Love stamp, one of my favorites and go-to's... I also used a sewers quilting tool to give the edge a faux stitching look. I ran it across the card on the dots too, hard to see in the picture though. I used four little rhinestones on the corner of the main panel, and three rhinestones for each butterfly's body. I hope you like it, I sure do.

Great card. I love the butterflies and the faux stitching is wonderful. Funny. I sat and "played" with my sis today and watched her make the same sketch with butterflies. Hers is gorgeous too.
Into my favs! I have this TH paper and couldn't think of a thing to use it for ... until now! Thank you! Your butterflies are sooo divine - etheral! Faux stitching? Wow - thought it was real! Excellent work!!!!
