Floral Wings

CCMC364

Watermelon Wonder has become my favorite new “go-to” summer color, so I was happy to see this color combination in our challenges.  My first thought was to have bright Watermelon and Curry flowers popping off a black background, but then I experimented with the butterfly from “Floral Wings”…

I really love how the butterfly looks in these colors.  Three stamps make up the butterfly, and I found it easiest to stamp the flowers first, then the butterfly.  I added the leaves as the last step before cutting with the framelit.  I also really love these sharp black and white prints in the Everyday Chic designer paper collection.

I used the Washi Label punch for my greeting.  The picture below shows how I attached the Gold Metallic Thread.  I wrapped it around two fingers and pushed it right onto the dimensional strip.
