Here's my card CASED from MariLynn's gallery here: F4A16 sympathy card by MariLynn at Splitcoaststampers
I stamped the butterfly in versamark and embossed in black ep. I colored the back of the butterfly with my yellow copic marker. I embossed the daffodil cardstock then used my versamarker to go over the flowers and vines then added gold ep. I've never tried to heat emboss something embossed like this. I had to hurry so it wouldn't dry so I can see places I didn't trace over so well. But, it's the first time, I'll keep practicing. This is the first time I'm playing in this challenge so I hope I'm doing this right!

Great idea to use the EF to use the premium space and showcase the butterfly!! TFS

You made it. Good for you, Sue. oooh, what a gorgeous yellow on yellow card! I love the vellum BF and how you colored it on the wrong side. Yes, using a versamark pen is not always an easy thing to do. So, in reality, I never use. My scrolls would never look as great as this if I had usedyour technique. Wonderful card that compliments beautifully MariLynn's gallery. c'mon back!
