Today's recipient is fighting cancer and I was inspired by her change in attitude. It made me think of this Unity sentiment which was my jumping off point. That in turn had me thinking about a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, changed and stronger for it!
I started by randomly sponging DOX inks over a card panel. Spritzed with water to lift a bit of the color, then stamped here and there with the marbling stamp. The sentiment was stamped with versamark and embossed with snow white powder. Next, I die cut the butterfly from the bg, stamped mini swirls and flowers on the edges of the wings and sponged the edge with gathered twigs for a bit more diefinition, added some stickles and set back into the apperture. Finished with some aqua sequins.
