Sorry this is a little late in posting, our internet has been out for two days...and my craft room is clean! LOL Anyway, for the Ways to Use it challenge, CathyMac asked us to use some Very Versatile Vellum.
I stamped my vellum with the butterfly and then fussy cut it out and lastly colored with copic markers. I made this for one of my Lammie friends (and she is also SU demonstrator). She recently and suddenly lost a very good friend in a car accident. Then two days later his mother passed away from cancer. Also, her beloved dog had to have surgery. She is just going thru so much! So I just wanted to make a peaceful card and let her know I am sorry she is going thru all of this.
I stamped the cattails, trees and bridge tiwce and layered them onto the card base so there is a little dimension (besides the butterfly). Thanks for taking a peek!

You've certainly created a lovely tranquil and peaceful scene, Kathleen, and your butterfly is just lovely. I am sure your friend will really appreciate this, and your care, so much.
Sorry you too had internet woes - not fun!!

What a lovely, bucolic scene! Your butterfly is so pretty..I'll have to try coloring vellum with copics. So sorry about all the trouble for your friend...you're a good pal to send this to her.
