I embossed a small piece of white card stock with my Chevron embossing folder (Darice) and mounted it to my white card base with foam dots. I stamped my butterfly (Stampendous) in black then coloured it randomly with my Spectrum Noir markers. I added some fine brass wire antennae and used glossy accents to attach them. I applied a thin layer of diamond ice stickles to the butterfly. I stamped my sentiment (Stampabilities) in black and then glued my butterfly down using glossy accents again. I added some sequins (Neat and Tangled) randomly around.
I'm linking up to the following challenges :
CAS-ual Fridays - it's a tic-tac-toe this month.
I went with chevron, black, and sequins.
Addicted to Stamps and More - make a CAS card.
Thanks for visiting and have a lovely day!
....THUD! My jaw has dropped to the floor with the awe-inspiring, breath-taken-awa stunning beauty of this butterfly! Black cardstock and Spectrum Noir? Winning combination (where did you get your SN markers...I've been searching! Any recommendations for sets/colours much appreciated!).
