The Butterfly Said

Photo Details

Poster: Margscardcrazy

This card is for Jen's HYCCT challenge to make a card inspired by things that take off, fly.

This is a straight forward small card with a Smooch Ink background. Here is a link to a tutorial on hoe to do the background;

i stamped onto some vellum to make the wing 3D and went over the veins with a black Copic Spica pen.

The quote said "Just living is not enough said the butterfly one must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower"

Had fun trying a new technique (for me anyway), hope you like it.

Thanks for looking
Cheers
Marg
