Flutter By Wednesday #33

When I sat down this week to create a Flutter By card I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. Then I remembered I had just gotten in new Paper Pretties stamps and one of them happened to be Flutter By. Seemed only appropriate that I use her for Flutter By Wednesday!

I colored Sophia with mostly copics and then prismacolors. Her bracelets and beads are colored with a stardust pen to add some sparkle.
I went to the Paper Pretties Gallery to find some inspiration for a layout and was pleased to find that they have challenges and some of those are sketch challenges. I know this is an older sketch but I liked the layout so I chose this one.

The paper I used is some I bought a long time ago from CTMH. It's called Discovery and I simply have been hoarding it. Afraid to use it as then it'll be gone. I'm sure no one else has that problem, right? Well, I took a brave step and used it tonight. It's not doing me any good being buried on my paper shelf so I might as well use it and enjoy it, right?
Ribbon is my fav CTMH ribbon as well.

On the inside I used the sentiment that came with Flutter By Sophia and also the CTMH set, Flutter that matches the paper. Used Flutter on the envelope as well. (Also a side note, I ended up going over those butterflies with a stardust pen because I had a stamping error, I think I covered it up well!)
Thanks for stopping by to look and remember if you create a Flutter By card, please leave a comment so I can see it! I love to see other's wonderful creations especially when butterflies are involved!!
Have a happy day!
