Something old......something new!

I came across this card I made a long time ago that has been sitting up on top of a very tall bookcase but fell over so I didn't see it for quite some time (tells you how often I dust.....yikes)  Do you do that too? Make a card and then let it just sit there forever...........geeze I have to get mailing out some of these cards!

Anyways.....I happened to pick up this Hero Arts digi butterfly I colored a week or 2 ago and looked at the 2 of them and thought to myself  "Well- would ya look at that- they are pretty much the same color.....I bet this butterfly would look great on here"!

So I put together something old and something new to come up with a card that I promise I will actually mail to someone!

I believe the foilage stamps are by Inkadinkado, and I sponged several shades of oranges and yellows around the outer edge. I came back and added some white and light brown highlights to the foilage. The digi butterfly is colored using Ranger distress inks and a few markers! Did a bit of paper piercing down the side, added a few brads, and that was it!

** I don't know if any of you like to read mystery/thrillers but I can't stop reading books by Greg Iles, his writing is fantastic and I've read about 5 of his books over the last month! Check him out- he's superb!

Thanks for stopping by!    Anne
