This is the inspirational photo for this weeks challenge at The Simon Says Blog, gorgeous summer colours so I had to play along. We are still having a really wet and windy time here in the UK at the moment so it was great to play with some warm colours.
I had fun creating the centre panel using my distress inks with water and the Meadow Silhouette stamp from Hero Arts. I have also embossed the edges with gold for a glimmer, the butterfly is also embossed in gold. The background stamp is my new Italian Poetry stamp, just love the script.
Have a great weekend.

Hi, I'm visiting your blog from the Moxie Fab World's current "challenge" to visit 10 random blogs that are a part of the Moxie Fab World blog list! I'm glad to stop by.
That butterfly card is beautiful. I love all the gold embossing and I am not normally a gold-loving girl. I think it works really well with the color scheme.
TFS!
