How are you today? I'm doing good! I'm always happy when I'm crafting and playing along with different challenges. I love creating things and seeing the challenge through different eyes when I see the projects made by the other people who link up projects. Today I'm playing along with the Fusion Card Challenge. You get an inspiration photo - this time all those great butterflies, and a sketch. You can make inspired by the photo or just use the sketch. I'm always trying to use both. The circle on the sketch is the button on mine - I just moved the dividing line on the sketch down a bit.
I pulled out lots of butterfly dies and punches for this one so I could layer them - alternating pattern paper and solids. I love how the bright colors and mix of patterns look together. I used some distress ink to color up the edges of the pattern paper butterflies. It gives them a more solid appearance.
