Pink, pink, pink

 Hello lovely crafters

At last...I've made a card for Mrs A's Butterfly Challenge.


I started using a gel print which is made with ink and a stencil. Then stamped the branches and added the pink flowers. 
I wanted to make them slightly 3D so added some tiny paper circles behind and shaped the petals. The butterfly also has scraps behind to lift it. 


So for the Butterfly challenge I have used: Flowers, Forest Green, Frosty Rose colours with Fuchsia gems in the middle of the flowers. And the butterfly of course. I thought I'd used blue but I think I changed my mind! I have several blue butterflies now waiting for another project.

I've also used snippets so this is heading to the Snippets Playground


Another spare butterfly. The gel print is from my stash and the leaves are cut from a snippet too. My stash is in piles all over the floor where I was looking for just the right colours. 

As I've used a stencil for the background I'm linking here. The optional May challenge is Girly!

Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day x
