Flutter By Wednesday #126 Fall Theme

Today's Flutter By Wednesday's challenge is to make a fall card and of course to include a butterfly, fairy or an angel.  So make a new card or project with a fall theme and make sure you include a butterfly, fairy or an angel and link it directly to InLinkz on the Flutter By Wednesday blog.  While you are there please check out what the other DT members created - their blog links are on the right side bar of the FBW blog.
I love the colors of fall and I tried to capture some of the colors here.  The flowers are stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored in with SU! Pumpkin Pie, Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry markers.  I water colored the background with a very light blue.  I did a water color wash with Pearl Ex and Twinking H20's on water color paper and dried it with my heat gun.  Then I cut out the butterfly with the PaperTrey Butterfly Dreams Die and then stamped it with one of the images from the Butterfly Dreams stamp set.  In real life the butterfly is really shimmery.  I added Glossy Accents to the flower centers and rhinestones to the body of the butterfly.
Thanks for coming by!
