Butterflies!

I did not much care for the owl craze of last year. This year's butterflies, however, are a bit cuter. Maybe I should have tried harder with the owls because I'm thinking those would work for masculine cards as well as feminine.



I made this for my niece who is 16 today.

The sentiment is a stamp on a small rectangular Tim Holtz fragment. I would love to get a package of the charms or the ovals, but all I have is squares/rectangles. I'm making do!

I used alcohol ink and mixatives on the back of the fragment to get the color then stamped the sentiment using Staz-on white ink. The flowers are white primas that I used alcohol inks on. I used some pearl mixative with the alcohol ink to give the pretty sheen.
