Vellum Butterflies

The dies I used here are two of the first ones I ever acquired. The butterfly has been used a lot, but the photo frame not so much. I don’t know which brand, but most likely Memory Box or Sizzix. Once I had cut the frames I used a patterned vellum and cut 6 butterflies and attached them together so they were doubled. The body was cut from an inked scrap to which I added some Stickles glitter. I used a sponge and some Tattered Rose and Seedless Preserves ink to add some colour to the frames after which I sprayed with my shimmer spray. Taking a piece of shimmer CS I ran it through using a StampinUp Sequins folder and then I added a little ink to the raised parts before adding it to the note card front. When the frames were dry, I added them on angles and then added the butterflies as you see. The sentiment is from Kokorosa. It is on my desk so being lazy and because I like the font too, I keep using it . I didn’t quite get my placement right with the frames because my hands are sore and I dropped one which of course ended upside down making a mess. It left me with no choice but to cover up the mess. I’m quite pleased with how this one turned out considering the oops.

I’m entering this into the following challenges:
