FBW235 - Open Challenge

Welcome to Flutter By Wednesday 235!  This week we have an open challenge - just include a butterfly or a fairy on your project.  We have a wonderful sponsor this week:  Beccy's Place.  Please go to the Flutter By Wednesday blog to get find out all of the details for the chance to win some digis from Beccy's Place.
I used a digi from Beccy's Place blog called Silhouette found here.  I resized it to fit on the front of an A2 card and printed it directly to the card stock.  I masked off from the edges around the image to the edges of the card front and then sponged on Distress Inks.  I then used a Martha Stewart punch that has 3 butterflies and punched them out of black cardstock and adhered them to the image.  I love how the color and the black pop against the white card stock!
Thanks for coming by!
