This was a real challenge for me, as I had never made a card quite like this before!
I used Lots of Dots Butterfly and Large Rectangle Stained Glass, both available at DRS Designs.
I embossed the butterfly with Clear EP, and after coloring, added Crystal Stickles all over the wings. I pierced the butterfly at each dot, and then watercolored in the rest of the stained glass with Gable Green, Certainly Celery, and Bashful Blue ink. A little heated organdy ribbon, and some flowers and hardware from Stampin' Up!
Thanks for coming to look!
