I had one thing in mind for this challenge but ended up with something else entirely. Does that every happen to you? Even so, I like how my card turned out.
Not a unique choice, but I decided to use a butterfly for this challenge. The wings were die cut from Bristol paper, the ink blended with a trio of yellow to orange inks, then added the body and the rest of the wings.
I used a cover die for the background to give it some subtle texture and design, then layered on the new SSS Petal-Tipped Labels die cuts for the butterfly's landing place. The sentiment was popped up on some thin foam tape and I finished things off by using a shimmer pen on all the black parts of the butterfly.
What comes to your mind when thinking of things that fly? Birds, planes, fairies, butterflies? For more inspiration, I encourage you to pop over to the challenge, where my talented teammates have some fabulous cards to share! The challenge ends Friday, May 23rd at 3pm EDT. Hope to see you there!
