Beautiful Butterfly

Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps.  This week we have a beautiful inspiration photo for you:
Image may contain: flower and outdoor

And here is the card I created:
 So, the butterfly was the obvious choice for this one.  And I HAD to go with the purple flowers because we were at my parents' house this weekend and my mom has a purple aster in her flower garden that was covered in Monarch butterflies!  It was so beautiful!  So, I colored the flowers with purple and added some purple mulberry paper for texture and softness.  I finished it off with one of my favorite sentiments and a little butterfly charm.
I stamped the butterfly twice so I could cut out the the top wing.  I adhered the base of it with glue and the top of the wing with a foam dot so it looks like it is fluttering.

Thanks for stopping by!  Make sure you head on over to The House blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has done with this photo.  And if you "need" any of the stamps I used, check out my 10% off your entire order coupon code over in my lift sidebar.

What an awesome challenge this has been - every card is beautiful. Love all of your purple and I was so happy to see mulberry paper. I still have my stash of mulberry paper. What a great idea with the fluttering wings on the butterfly.
