For today's MIX 131 Love IT challenge from Janelle.
I sort of cheated, being short of time, but only sort of.
The background is from my scrap box - it's Brushos on glossy card, edged with a gold leafing pen. I stamped the leaves, added dots in the leaves with a black pen, and lots of white Liquid Pearl dots (one of my loves).
I had a sheet of music covered with gesso that has been on my desk for edges, I cut the flowers from it and then coloured them with Twinkling H2Os, I love the way they look on gesso. I dropped a tiny bit of Brusho in the centre of each of the small flowers. Added a sentiment from Verve, and then it still seemed to be lacking something, so I added the little butterflies, which have been rubbed with Luster Rub-Ons from Craft-T, something else I love using - in fact I've just had to replace one set as some of the colours are totally finished.

Beautiful! I hope having the back ground in your stash isn't cheating, cause I keep a lot of backgrounds and use them for challenges. I think the butterflies were the perfect finishing touch.

This is gorgeous. I love how your Brushos turned out. I cannot for the life of me get the hang of these. I never like how mine look. Then I love the leaves stamped behind the 3d flowers. The liquid pearls add a great touch. I like them too. Great card.

AMAZING! You were short on how much time? lol It looks fabulous and love just everything about it, but my enabler's alert went off with the gold leafing pen, that looks awesome!
Thank you for playing along in the MIX:131 Love IT! challenge.
