Swallowtail Butterfly


I saw a card pretty much like this one - same technique and Designer Series Paper. Stamp the Swallowtail Butterfly  using VersaMark Pad. Apply Clear Embossing Powder and heat with Heat Gun. Using sponge daubers apply Basic Grey ink onto butterfly and around its edges.  I added pearls to the DSP.  Black Satin Ribbon is under the White organza ribbon .  Basic card is Whisper White layered onto Basic Black.  The DSP is layered onto Basic Grey cardstock.  

Stamp - Swallowtail
Cardstock - Basic Grey, Basic Grey, Whisper White and Sycamore Street DSP (from Sale-a-Bration -  you could have gotten it for free!)
Ink - VersaMark and Basic Grey
Accessories - Pearls, Basic Black Satin Ribbon, Whisper White organza Ribbon, Sponge Daubers, Heat Gun, Clear Embossing Powder.  

Hint
When using clear embossing powder on DSP it is difficult to see if all areas have melted. Check and double check to ensure it is all done.  

PS - There's a really wonderful lady at Heart to Heart International who loves butterflies.  This card is on her desk because she really deserves it.
