Thanks for coming back to day 2 of our hop! Today, I used the gorgeous butterfly on the Mini Swallowtail stamp set. I used a scalloped edge accordion fold card my sweet friend Becky adapted for the Silhouette. The base was cut in white and the tops were cut in my favorite color, purple! Next, I stamped the butterfly from the mini set in black Memento ink and then used my Bic Mark-Its to color and shade in the image. After it was completely dry, I used some Spray & Sparkle Glitter Varnish in Silver from Crafter’s Companion on it to give it just a little sparkle. I wish the photo could better show you the difference it made! Then I fussy cut the butterfly and bent his wings up just a little before attaching him to the card to give the illusion of flight. I hope you like it!
