I made this for today's inspiration challenge "Mackintosh Enamels". I stamped the stem silhouettes image (circle) with summer sun, more mustard and pumpkin pie onto glossy card stock. Sprayed with shimmer mist and dried with heat gun. Inked up edges with MM, SS and PP. Versa marked image and embossed with glassy glaze enamel. Cut out circles with colluzzle. Sponged the pumpkin pie circle with PP ink, added the white dots. I made the background using the emboss resist technique. Stamped the foliage with versamark onto glossy white card stock and clear embossed. Sponged on Pumpkin pie, summer sun and more mustard. Used ticket corner punch. sponged edges. Matted with pumpkin pie. Stitched around the edges. Added the black brads. Tied on the sheer and striped ribbons. I used a black sharpie pen to colour the label holder, added the dots with white gel pen. Punched out from a scrap piece of bg with label punch. I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of vellum and punched out and layered over top. attached with brads. Main card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 black card stock. Punched out the butterflies, used platinum stickles on the bodies and glued them on.
