Just Living is Not Enough

How true is that!  This little butterfly has inhabited my stash for some time and I’ll apologize ahead of time that I don’t know which company offers this unmounted.  Please, please if you know – email me so that I can give them proper credit.   He-he I have quite a few stamps from this company, that I picked up at a Stamp Convention several years ago and I know the name is written somewhere in my studio….I’ll keep trying to find it too.

This design is likely to have either a flower or a strip of design paper added somewhere, perhaps, before sending it out.  I really tried to load it up and my Cuttlebug was hungry for the background, but I resisted.   The butterfly was colored with Copics on Fabriano Watercolor paper…. no, I didn’t plan that in advance, but it ended up being very interesting how the paper took the color and how it moved around on the paper. 

The wings are embellished with a Sakura Gelly Roll glitter pen and it sparkles in real life, but tricky to catch with the camera.  Lastly, the piercing pattern is an Ornare template – tons of fun and simple to do.   Have a blessed day.

Supplies:
Paper:  Bazzill, Fabriano Acquarello
Ink:  Stazon Black
Ribbon:  Michaels
Accessories:  Button – Heidi Grace, Nestabilities, Ornare Template, Copics
