Here's my tribute to Connie. While looking at her gallery I found lots of butterflies. Here's my inspiration for this card. WT403 Delight by stamp300 at Splitcoaststampers I liked the colors of this butterfly so I used a new SU stamp called Swallowtail for this. It was stamped in Stazon black ink. I then colored the image with sponges and daubers using daffodil, tangerine and marina mist. the text is from Sweet Essentials-SU.
