My card was inspired by the Lavender En Fleur candle from Papyrus. I love the look of the black flowers on purple.
I stamped my Hero Arts CardArt stamp in black ink and embossed it. I stamped it a second time and cut out the detailed butterfly wing and attached it with a tiny piece of Zips adhesive line for dimension. The center panel is attached to lavender handmade paper with dimensionals. I added four tiny adhesive pearls to bring the ivory from the candle label into the design.
