Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge!
I have been working on only 4 hours sleep, and I'm not doing so hot! I'm tired, cranky, and I've got a headache, but, I REFUSE to not use this time to stamp, as the rest of the day I'll be getting a treatment! Thank goodness my doctor has WiFi, or I'd go crazy! LOL!
I have had this Cuttlebug Butterfly for a VERY long time, and have NEVER used him! I decided that today was the day. The butterfly was cut then embossed. It was sponged HEAVILY with Apricot Appeal, Pumpkin Pie and Riding Hood Red.
The sentiment and small butterflies are Sneak Peeks! I stamped the butterflies in Noir Black Palette Ink onto the small panel and the the oval. Next, I stamped the vine in Always Artichoke and the sentiment in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink. The rest was sponged to create the sun, sky and ground.

Glad you had too much coffee ... another gorgeous card! I also bought this Cuttlebug Butterfly along time ago and have never taken it out of the package but now I see I must go dust off the wrapper and try it out!
