I added two flourishes and two white heart rub-ons to the background paper. I also used UmWow's polaroid frame, arrow, and butterfly chippies. They were painted with gesso then the butterfly wings were sprinkled with distressed glitter. I also added some seed beads and gems to the butterfly for more dimension. A few heart gems, and a flower on the arrow finished off the card. (There's also a "Be My Valentine" rub-on across the stems of the large flourish, but it doesn't really show up. I may have to put something else over it). Thanks for taking a look, and be sure to check out UmWow Studios and their blog for lots of beautiful goods and ideas! I think I like it better without the heart gems on the top edge and bottom side, so I removed them (see top picture).
Love how you altered that butterfly! Very pretty card!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really pretty card. I love the butterfly. When I clicked on the picture to enlarge it I could just see the script rub-on. I actually rather like the little heart gems, but it is just as lovely without them. Kate x
ReplyDeleteThank you. I keep wavering on the heart gems...They may end up back on the card.
DeleteI am so blown away by the goodness on that butterfly!!
