Blue Butterflies

 This card is another result of the 30 Minute Card Making Stash and Dash event. 

The parameters for this project were as follows: slimline card, use orange, inking, and use something that starts with the letter B. 

I used Distress Oxide inks to blend an orange background (and wow - it is ORANGE!) I splattered it with water but only the top section really changed... must be the result of a different ink pad as to why that wasn't so noticeable at the bottom). I die cut the slimline background and placed a piece of blue cardstock behind the openings. I die cut the orange circles from the larger openings in the background and put them back into place. The butterflies were embossed in silver and coloured in shades of blue. One was placed in each circle and the wings were turned up. I added an embossed sentiment with metallic thread and then some silver gems around the images. 

Enjoy,

Alyson
