No, I didn't print an actual butterfly (no animals were harmed in the making etc.) but I did heavily ink the diecut and use it to print the card while it was still wet, then reinked it. When dry misted with shimmer mist. The background is also subtly splattered, edges outlined with gold pen as is the senti. The diecut is double layered to give it depth.
Diecut: Spellbinders
Also: DIs, Shimmer Mist, gold pen, black pen, gems
