I'm catching up on the weekend's HYCCT Challenges and combined with the technique challenge to add a little dimension. For the HYCCT challenge we were to use 3 dies and focus on a sentiment. I used Flourishes 9 & 11, Beautiful Wings Embosslit and a Circle Nestability for my dies. I used the Tim Holtz Bricked ef with a piece of box board for my bg. I sponged with Riding Hood Red and distressed the edges with the Cutter kit Distressing Tool. I stamped the words from Strength and Hope in soft Suede on Baja Breeze before die cutting the butterfly. Added some sponging in Suede. I also added depth by sponging the edges of the flourish in Garden Green and the edges of the circle with Soft Suede. I added some dimension with the little roses and also popped my butterfly by gluing just the center and bending the wings up. The card base edges are also sponged.

I love what you did with that brick embossing folder. A very nice back drop for your butterfly.
