Little Lily

I’ll admit it. I squealed with delight when I saw this week’s challenge at Dutch Dare Card Challenges-- Flutterby Butterfly!! I have been missing Flutter By Wednesday’s so I knew I had to play along!
I stamped one of the new Susana Loves Stamps- Little Sassy Crew, Little Lily in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored her with my copics and ShinHan Art Touch Twin markers. I cut her out and paired her with My Mind’s Eye-Miss Caroline-Dolled Up papers.




I cut the oval out using my nestabilities and then embossed it with my Cuttlebug Argyle embossing folder.  I used several dies including Memory Box Moonlight Butterfly and Kaleidoscope Butterfly and Dies by SCACD- Garden Corners.



As I was finishing the card I noticed that the oval with the embossing sort of blended into everything so I added a bit of sparkle to it using Luminarte Silk Glaze in Ice. The final touches were some Kaisercraft pearls, stardust pen touches and finishing the inside.



For my layout I used this week’s sketch from The Sweet Stop~




Hope that all my friends in the USA have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Great take on that sketch. Super cute image, colored beautifully. I love the paper choices, and that butterfly (which I have resisted!).
