Queen of the Night

 


Butterflies and Moths belong to the same scientific order, Lepidoptera. Moths are queens of the night.

A page from a novel added to journal page, inked, splattered, stencilled (Distress Inks).  Then stamped with Tim Holtz Entomology image.   Ranger Distress Crayons & white pen in circles and dots, and in orange along the edge of the page.  In a Tim Holtz Idea-ology I found some text that suited.   I added stamped & fussy-cut moths (over the stamped ones) with gold bodies (Versamark ink) and wings left free.  The other bugs are company while she looks for a mate ...

  1. Gorgeous page Carol so much intensity of colour and the pops of white of the Moth's.

    You've inspired me to dig out the charity shop book I bought for crafty projects (this time I'll make sure I check the text before showcasing it - caught out once when I didn't!!).

    Many thanks for sharing at We Love Stamping, Moths fit the theme perfectly.
