Hello. Welcome. This started as something and metamorphosed into something very different. Quite appropriate considering the butterflies.
I started with a kraft panel, white embossed Hero Arts Word Pops background stamp and added some Brusho colour.
I added a brown Cheery Lynn English Tea Party doily, toned it down with some gesso and then spritzed with gold shimmer spray.
I dyed the string with Distress Vintage Photo ink. The butterflies are the large butterfly from Hero Arts/Sizzix Collage Background stamp. I stamped on paper I had coloured with watercolours and fussy cut. I added some wire for antennas and the sentiment is from Hero Arts/Sizzix Bicycle set. I wanted a bright background card, but the raspberry was a bit bright, so I smeared on some Distress Walnut Stain.
