As you can see, I tweaked the sketch a bit by adding a few more circles. I couldn't help it; it just looked empty, lol.
I used two colors of ink from a rainbow ink pad to stamp the images on my card. Two sizes of circle dies were used to cut the circles out and the images were stamped w/ the dies in place.
After stamping the butterflies, I used Versamark all over them and embossed on top w/ clear ep to add a little shine. The sentiment was die cut and a narrow grosgrain ribbon was tied in a bow. The lower edge of the dp was punched w/ a decorative punch. The finished card measures 4.25 x 5.5.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups are on my blog: The Write Stuff
