Why this card took forever!

Photo Details

Poster: #1volunteer

Folks, do not EVER decide to watercolor this motif! Especially when you stamped it with a regular pad. After I did that, I decided to add stardust gelly roll glitter pen over the WHOLE thing and the details in the butterflies. It looks much better IRL. I swear!

That is a lot of watercoloring! It turned out so pretty, but I can imagine how much work that was! It's so pretty with that dsp.
