Big bold butterfly

When I resurrected my large autumn leaves stamp last week I enjoyed it so much that I decided to bring out another stamp from the set, this time a giant butterfly. (The third and final one is dragonflies - but then you'd probably already guessed that if a range of stams contained a dragonfly, i would have it!).


I coloured it with Promarkers, using the Butterfly Challenge's colours of mint, magnolia and mandarin for the background and those of the central butterfly on Addicted to Stamps's beautiful photo inspiration for the butterfly. I added twisted mats of the background colours and a stamped sentiment. I considered adding some gems or pearls to the corner but with such a bold, bright image it all seemed a bit Too Much and guided the eye away from the butterfly, so I didn't stick them in place.

I am sharing this with
