Trish selected Stamp Muse(Emily) for the Queen this week. Emily has an awesome gallery filled with beautiful cards and loads of inspiration. She also takes time to encourage others with her kind comments. I chose this CARD to CASE.
Wendy's F4A was to "repeat". I did that with the gold cording and the golden rhinestones.
Lydia's MIX17 was to do "smooth/rough". My smooth is the black heat embossing on the butterfly. The rough is the dry embossing which I swiped with a gold ink pad.
Congratulations, Emily(Miss M, Stamp Muse), on your special honor this week. Enjoy the gallery created in your honor.

I think this is the prettiest card made using the swallow tail butterfly. The coloring is to die for.

The colors on this are wonderful..the sponged gold illuminates your butterfly if that makes sense and your gold cording and rhinestones are very artistic accents..cool!

Just perfect. I love it all. I am finding that that big stamp is more useful than I ever imagined. I hope you use yours often too!

This butterfly looks ready to take flight, Sallie! Yet it sits here on the swirls so beautifully! A beautiful feast of textures, colors and embellishments for the eye!
