This week's challenge on Squiggle Fly was to use at least 2 squares on your project. I've been wanting to use this digital image by one of their Artists, Diana Garrison and her creation called Butterfly Beauties. The Beauty of using a digital image is that you can alter the size of them to suit your needs. Now I must say that a larger image would have been SO much easier to color with my copics but then I couldn't have used the square features!
I used the SQUARE Renaissance Spell Binder die, SQUARE mat buttons, SQUARE embossed grid folder that I ran through my Cuttlebug with deep blue cardstock, and <<chuckles>> an ELONGATED SQUARE image by Diana (otherwise known as a rectangle!). Some accent features on this card are the iridescent Stickles that I used on the Moon and the pale yellow sheer ribbon with swirls to compliment the scroll work on the die.
The Challenge is even more interesting this week because there wasn't a winner in last week's contest--now 2 images are up for grabs! Wish me luck!! Thanks for looking, Carolyn
This is so very pretty! I love your frame and the butterfly scene!
