I stamped my images on some plain white card and coloured them with Couleur d'Art pencils. Then I sponged on some colour, and stamped Linen and French Foligae over the florals. Added the sentiment.
For the top layer, I sponged a dictionary page heavily with Vintage Photo, and also added a little colour on the reverse side. I tore out the centre and then rolled the edges round a fine knitting needle to give some dimension. I stuck this over the card front, then edged it with a leafing pen, added some metallic chunky EP and tied it with twine. To finish off I added a butterfly sticker - thank you, Francie!
Since I hadn't used these stamps before (part of my HYCCT prize) I'm tagging this for the USEIT2015 challenge. I didn't make a specific commitment for June, just trying to use various un-inked stamps.
