I used red so I could experiment with a recent discovery! The embossing powder is new to me and it's called Red Dragon. It is red with gold glitter and embosses beautifully on black!
I cut two contrasting layers for each of the butterflies with the Cuttlebug, then embossed them. Over this I used black ink on one, gold glitter on the 2nd and embellished the 3rd with more Red Dragon and some red gems to simulate the butterfly's body.
I embossed the red square brads in gold for added interest. I hope you like it!
Thanks for the challenge and thanks for looking!

Very Asian looking. The background is cool with the embossed script on the black, and those bright textured bejewelled butterflies are just the business. And even the detail of the little embossed brads - they look sweet.
