I used a vellum overlay -need to get some vellum cardstock- might be easier to work with. My image is Irises from Cornish Heritage Farms and the butterfly from Watercolor Garden. Used the aquapainter brush to color in Eggplant Envy, Cameo Coral, Green Galore, Violet. The yellow is a Derwent watercolor pencil. Embossed a butterfly trail and paper pierced around the edges. Sponged vellum with Lavender ColorBox fluid chalk ink.

Oh this is gorgeous! I love the floral and the colors you used are just perfect! The butterflies are just wonderful! To tell the truth I had wanted to put a butterfly on mine too but by the time I got done with the flowers I decided it was enough! I LOVE your card! TFS!

Bev, with all this lovely card's details, I have a feeling you're arm is much better (hope so) The iris is just gorgeous and your coloring is so spectacular! This is a wonderful card to compliment the challenge gallery.
