I used my Melon Berry ink pad on a piece of acetate, and then used my Aqua Painter and the ink on a piece of scrap white cs. Once it was dry I used a stamp from Gorgeous Grunge (SU!) and the Melon Berry ink to get the speckles, and then used the butterfly die (PTI) to cut out the shape. I cut another butterfly out of Aqua Mist cs and then inlaid the cut out pieces of the Melon Berry one. I also added Crystal Effects to the open spots on the Melon Berry butterfly. I added a strip of Aqua Mist Bitty Dot DSP to the bottom of my card and then added the sentiment from "Life is Beautiful" just above that. CAS, but still a really nice card to send out for a birthday. :0) I will definitely be playing a LOT more with this set! :0)

Hey Marcia, 3 cards today, wow! You really out did your self today. All of your cards are amazing. My favorite is the butterfly card. I love how you added the specks to the butterfly. It looks like a really butterfly. I have to try that next time. Great job on all of your hard work.
Beautiful card! I just love these butterflies and seeing all the different ways bloggers are creating with them to today is super fun.
