Ok, I promise, this will be my last Heart Winged Butterfly card for a little while, I have now put it away! I am making this using the CAS-ual Friday sketch and will submitted into that challenge as well as the Simon Says Stamp Challenge which is "Anything Goes".
Cardstock: PTI; Neenah; designer paper (DCWV - Mariposa stack)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Fired Brick and Crushed Olive distress ink; Copics
Stamps: Hero Arts (Heart Winged Butterfly F5158; Floral Brocade CG187); PTI (Mat Stack 4 collection)
Other: dimensional foam adhesive
It was actually many months ago that I stamped the Floral Brocade with red ink onto the Mariposa designer paper. And I remember at the time that I did not like the result at all, I kept looking at it and wondering what I was going to do with it. But, I'm not a "throw it in the bin" type and I kept it in my ever growing reject pile, until today. Then today I decided to stamp another butterfly and color it totally unconventionally. I think it's ok, but not really brilliant. I hope that someone out there will enjoy it!
Thanks for popping by again! Have a fabulous Sunday!

The brocade stamp on the pp is very interesting, B! Kind of a collage effect- Another beauty of a butterfly :) It looks very cool withthe bold black on this!
Someone does like it Brenda! Your read colored portions of the butterfly brought the heart design in the wings to life! You could make a Valentine with your favorite butterfly ;)
Why stop when you are having fun, Brenda?! LOVE your heart wing butterfly!! The colors and the stamped pattern paper background are seamless together! PERFECT take on the sketch! So glad that you play with us at CAS_ual Fridays!
i'm not entirely sure what is wrong with this card, brenda, because it is just so darn pretty!!! and please... keep using that butterfly because you have been making some amazing cards with it!
Brenda, I think the background you created is very PRETTY so I'm glad you didn't throw it away! And that butterfly is so STRIKING! PRETTY card!
I think your butterfly cards are so wonderful that you shouldn't stop! :) Those colors are great!
That background is fabulous! Glad you didn't 'toss' it! Love what you created using the sketch at CAS! Keep using that beautiful butterfly...you are forcing me to purchase it!
I enjoy this card, Brenda! I never would have thought to stamp the brocade onto that PP - great effect. And I love the pretty butterfly.
Brenda, see how it pays off to keep these images we sometimes set aside because we don't quite know what to do with them? This is so, so, SO pretty! I love the heart-winged butterfly...so happy to see you using it!
I think it is brilliant! definitely not a reject!
Ooh! I really love the mirage of colors on the background and your butterfly colors are perfect!
you have been rocking the heart butterfly stamp Brenda! No need to quit now!
This is a fantastic match, Brenda and the result is such a success (rather than reject!)!!! Love this and the depth it has. Great job. Never too many butterflies, either.
It's beautiful Brenda!
