Memory Box Vivienne Butterly

Hi Lovelies...

For my card today, I decided to use a colour that I don't use often, but always admire - so out came my purple Distress Oxides!

I chose to use this fabulous Vivienne Butterfly from Memory Box (a long time ago).  I diecut it from white cardstock, then wiped it over my Versamark Ink Pad, before sprinkling Embossing Glitter over.  Then I traced around the butterfly on vellum which I'd printed with some watercolours (using a download from png.wing)  cutting it out, then splattering with gold paint, and finally adhering it behind the diecut butterfly.

Then for the background, I used this die set from Waffle Flower which gave me the circles too.  I smooshed some card with Distress Oxides, again splattering with gold.  For the white rectangle, I used an embossing folder to give some texture.  

After putting it all together, I added a tiny sentiment that I'd done on the PC, backing that with a tiny bit of the purple card.

I absolutely loved how this turned out and can't stop checking it out!  I'm not sure I'll be able to send it to anyone... maybe I'll just keep it for a few months before doing that! Do you ever get that feeling when something turns out well?? 

Big hugs...
