Hoje fiz um postal com uma citação de Paulo Coelho que eu gosto muito. Imprimi-a no computador sobre a base do postal e, só depois, acrescentei os restantes elementos decorativos. Nas borboletas fiz embossing com silver platinum da Ranger. Por isso ficaram com um aspeto brilhante. Por cima, aquelas linhas foram feitas com tinta lilás e um carimbo. Para terminar, usei algumas lantejoulas.
Hi!
Today my card is all about a quote by Paulo Coelho which I love. I printed it in my computer and then worked on the rest of its elements. The square piece was embossed on the card, masked and then I used green distress ink to give it a light shade. Then I stamped the butterflies and embossed them with silver platinum embossing powder from Ranger. On the butterflies I have also stamped the swirly lines with lilac so as to give the impression that the butterflies are actually moving. To finish my card I simply used some sequins.




I tend to think of butterflies as insects, but I guess they are part of the animal kingdom.... we would prefer actual animals as we often have opportunities for things with wings etc... but it's a lovely card Mary!

So pretty Mary. Love the heat embossed butterflies. They look wonderful. The sponged edges look perfect. Great one layer card. Thank you for playing along with us at The Color Throwdown.
