Butterflies here, there, everywhere!


You know when you have this idea in your head and it won't go away no matter how hard you try to ignore it? well thats what happened with this card design - I was failing to sleep one night about a week ago and I just got this design idea running through my head. Hoping I could sleep if I drew it down so it wasn't forgotten, thats exactly what I did - sadly it didn't help the sleep.

Anyway, I finally got around to trying it out the other day and this is what it looks like:-

It's not what I imagined-  but then again, things never seem to be when you actually get round to making them. But consequently - i'm really not too sure if I like it.

Anyway - obviously it's Tilda, coloured with watercolours, highlighted with whisper pens, foam mounted on purple paperstock from ages ago. The central circle was cut with the Fiskars board from pink paperstock, the butterflies punched with an x-cut punch- masked with double sided sticky tape and glittered with a mixtrue of purple and pink dust (hard to see on the photos). Small gems also from stash.

Thoughts and feedback welcomed. Thanks for taking the time to look.
Happy Crafting! xx
