pretty much kept the same color scheme, changed sets and had to make my butterfly
colored with prismacolor pencils, baby oil for blending, added dots on the butterfly with sakura gel glaze pen
the 3 popped up flowers are embossed and colored
Cindy..........we LOVE your stories....don't ever stop, how it was, coulda-shoulda been, DH and the camera.....................whatever!!!

Not only are you the flower arranging, texture queen, you are a master at coloring butterflies. I love, love, love this butterfly!!!! Gorgeous Dawn. It looks like it could just fly off the card and to Colorado....

There you go again stealing butterflies from the Natural Arts and Museum Butterfly Symposium! Dang it, I just look at that old butterfly card I made and noticed that I told the truth about where I got the butterfly...I should lied that I made it....you made yours and look at it....My butterfly career is officially over! Well, it never really started but now is sure isn't gonna!
Dawn this card is just gorgeous and how do you do it...your butterflies I mean. They are gorgeous beyond gorgeous! I love that you chose a butterfly card! Thank you so much for the kind comments here and all of the time on my cards. Thanks for making this day a special one for me by participating and keeping it so fun!
