These colors made me think flowers... classic... a little elegant....
So I stamped a Serendipity Orchid image on watercolor paper and used SU inks. Added some glitter and rhinestones. The butterfly was stamped twice- one fussy cut and popped on top.
Here's a side view--- I used my Xacto knife to cut the edges of some of the orchids- shows the colored layered underneath. Just a fun little twist!
