I wanted to make a special card for a young lady who I adore. I have been saving this butterfly ( I colored it while away on vacation ) so it was just waiting to fly into a card for a special person ….so that made it easy to assemble.The butterfly is a Hero Arts stamp and I colored with my Copics then I used a Spica pen to add the glittery dots and lines. I put a thick layer of Glossy Accents on the butterfly this morning to enhance it. It looks pretty cool in person. Thanks for looking!
