Flutterby

 


What is lighter than a butterfly? If you ever had one land on you you  know it is special and leaves you feeling lighter than the butterfly.  I made this for an internet buddy's birthday.

I used my gelli plate to make this, using stamps and Distress Oxide Inks.  The dots (cut from heavy matt silver) are drop-outs from a die, I stacked some of them with various layers.  They represent the butterfly journey.  The 'happy' die is inset and cut from the same silver card, the 'birthday' is stamped and heat embossed in silver.

Stamps: Grace Taylor 

Die happy:  Heidi Swapp

Also: DOxInks
