Today's CAS challenge is to use dark blue and white. I sponged my background for the butterflies using Night Of Navy, Pacific Point, Bashful Blue, and Not Quite Navy Inks. I stamped the butterfly swirl image in black and then stamped the butterflies in black onto vellum and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I matted the vertical panel in Night Of Navy cardstock. I added some glossy accents and glitter to the butterfly wings.
TFL!

Your butterflies look beautiful in the vellum even without coloring! Love your pretty blues used for the bg too, Emily! This is a very rich looking card imho~

GORGEOUS, Emily! Love your subtle sponging with all the shades of blue. The vellum butterflies are beautifully done and look terrific sitting on the flourish swirls.
