In North Queensland we have an absolutely beautiful blue butterfly, known as the Blue Mountain Butterfly or the Ulysses Butterfly. I have created the following cards using an image from Darkroom Door's Butterflies Stamp Set - this butterfly is not the same shape as the Ulysses. The Ulysses is a large swallowtail...
I stamped the image with Versamark Black Ink and then embossed with Black Embossing Powder. I have then coloured the butterfly with Copic B29 Ultramarine. Next I outlined the image and traced over the wing details with my Jelly Roll Stardust Pen and finally coated with Ranger's Glossy Accents.
Using a white card base, layering with black card, then a white layer which features the butterfly images and then adhering the coloured butterfly with mounting tape makes the butterfly appear as though it is hovering above the card. Here is a closer view of a butterfly...
These butterflies are so beautiful, you can't help feeling blessed when you are lucky enough to see one!
Hope you have at least one moment of feeling blessed today!
