Jo, I like this card. I know in real life it looks different depending on which way you hold it. Pearl ex is fun to work with, but it can be hard to photgraph.I love how you lightened up the card with the stunning butterfly. Thanks for the inspiration....I need to get my pearl x out and do something with them. tfs

The bg does resemble a pottery glaze and against that your butterfly really stands out...I appreciate your artistry. Great take on your inspiration piece.

I've tried using PearlEx, it's probably in the garage sale stuff in the garage...I would need a little more patience to make it work. Good try Jo, it does look like the pot and I love the use of the silhouette flower with it, TFS

JO, I think you took the little pottery jar and transformed it wonderfully into a card! You really captured the colors and your butterfly is beautiful. It is NOT a monstrosity!! I like it!

Jo! You nut! It is cool! It makes me think of a cell (clip) from an animated movie. The BEAUTIFUL butterfly was looking for a place to land, but the storms came.....Can you see it now? Ah there is a flower just up ahead! Finally, peaceful rest.
And I alway love your Copics coloring! : ) Can't wait to see what your next film will be about! (wink)

WOW!
What a fantastic card!
I love how you layered the bg colors then added the silhouette, then popped the card with that gorgeous butterfly!
Awesome Job!!!!
