Masked Butterflies


What a beautiful day it is here in Ontario, Canada.  Nature is alive and the butterflies are here.  I am playing along with an Inspiration Challenge at Splitcoast today and this is the card I created for it.
I used the new stamp from Penny Black called Soft Wings and the sentiment is from the Gratitude set. 
I stamped the first butterfly in the corner, masked it then stamped the other two on either side.  I coloured with Copic markers, added the black line to pull it all together then added some Glossy Accents to the butterflies to give them some shine.
Thanks for coming by and taking a peek. 

Supplies:  stamps:  Penny Black/ Copic markers/ Glossy Accents/ mix and match cs

Stunning! I love the sense of movement your layout gives - just like the real ones fluttering out in the yard :) Amazing!

Fabulous card, Karen! I love the rich colours and the placement of the butterflies off the page. They look like they're just fluttering into view.

The butterflies on your card are beautiful! The color palate of orange, red and brown were perfect! Great coloring.
