Edwin Chasing Butterflies


Happy MondayEveryone! Today's card features Edwin from the Chasing Butterflies collection. I think this is only my third card I ever made using Edwin...I love girly-girl stuff! The card base is 5.5" square and I used SU! sky blue CS, the DP is from DCWV Blossoms & Butterflies 12" stack. I stamped Edwin and the tiny butterflies and dragonflies on Paper Trey white with Memento Tuxedo black ink, colored the image with Copics, drew a brown line for the "ground", then used Prismacolor pencils and OMS. I shaded the background with a light blue chalk from Pebbles, Inc. but it doesn't show up too well, then I added some Flower Soft here and there to take away the sparseness on the ground. I stamped and colored the butterfly, and stamped once again on vellum, colored it from the back, cut it out and adhered the body part to the main butterfly's body. Lastly I added some blue ribbon and attached a butterfly charm, and also a blue butterfly brad to Edwin's net. The DP has alot of sparkly silver in it and it is hard to photograph. Hope you're having a wonderful day, and thank you for dropping by. Have a wonderful, fun, stampin' week!
