Hello friends. We have a new challenge for you at Seize the Birthday and the topping option chosen by Cathy is Winged Things.
I blended Speckled Egg DOI over a white panel and then stamped the stem image from SU Celebrate With Flowers (ret.) several times across the bottom of the panel, overlapping them. I had the butterflies already stamped and die cut, so I colored them with Copics and glued just the body section to the panel. I also glued the butterfly antenna down so they wouldn't get bent or broke off. I then added the panel to my card base.
Be sure to check out all the lovely cards with winged things by our team and guest designers over at Seize the Birthday. Hope to see you in our gallery.
I am linking this to AAA Birthday Challenge #45 - Anything Birthday Goes.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
