CC395 Plum Butterfly

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

Betty gave us the following lovely colors for the CC today:

Perfect Plum
Summer Starfruit
Tangerine Tango
Neutrals of Choice

Dessert: to add Pool Party (which I did not)

I stamped my flower image on white CS and filled in the bg with my black Copic marker(not as time-consuming as you might think). The butterfly is stamped and cut out on computer paper....I like the "lightness" of feeling it gives. Besides with the saturation of the Copic ink, both sides get colored. Also, using Copics, I tried to get as close as possible to the chosen colors for today.

So gorgeous Sallie!!! Having the black background really makes your beautiful sunflower stand out! Love how you use the starfruit yellow and the tangerine orange for the petals, so lovely!!! Your butterfly in the soft plum almost seems dream-like! LOVE it all!
