I managed to finish my shoebox swap cards for tomorrow and stayed up even later to play in the IC since I won't be able to play tomorrow. I am thrilled to be back in my stamp room!
I used several stamp sets for the background which was embossed in Patina Jade and Ochre Tapestry on gloss stock. Over this I sponged TH Peeled Paint and then sponged with Basic Gray. This was placed over a base of the new gold shimmer stock from Curious Metallics. It's fantabulous and a fraction of the cost of Gmund Treasury. Way to go Curious!
The butterfly is embossed in TH Distress Walnut stain on the same gold stock. Thanks to Peggy-Sue for the God's Beauty set from which I used the butterfly stamp!
Not my best effort, but it's way past my bedtime. Nevertheless, I hope you like it and thanks for looking!

So lovely M! Your signature asian style done beautifully! As Harriet said above - my goodness - so many materials used! Most of them I have never heard of either! Beautifully done! Such talent!
