Best Wishes Butterfly

I'm loving a blue and purple color combo lately. For this card I stamped and heat embossed the background with Versa Mark ink and myStamp Box white embossing powder onto white Recollections cardstock. Then I inked the entire area with Ranger's distress ink and sprayed it generously with water mixed with Perfect Pearls. It has a fabulous shimmer. The background and butterfly stamps are by Hero Arts and the sentiment by Stampin Up. The butterfly is stamped with Memento Ink and the sentiment with Hero Arts black ink. The butterfly was colored with Copic markers and fussy cut out and then layered onto 3 different shapes of die cuts all by Spellbinders. The sentiment is on purple cardstock that has been inked on a Quickutz die cut. There is a Making Memories eyelet on the right of the sentiment die cut. All of these layers where adhered to a white Recollections card base size 4 x 5.5.

Thanks for looking.
