Happy Birthday

Been awhile since I did any inking, not to mention how long I've had this beautiful Hero Arts background stamp and can't remember if I've used it! Stamped with clear embossing ink and embossed with Frantage mint,gold and cream powder then black TH distress ink added to the background. The Happy Birthday stamp from Clever Cut.
Used an 8x8 scalloped card, my design is 6x6 approx.





Indigo Blu 'Flutterby' stamp, stamped with Memento Black and inked with Adirondack brights  finished off with pearls and some gold Glamour Dust .Hand cut out. Inked butterfly onto main  card and mounted butterfly with pads.

Wow! This card is a stunner Carol. I think I definitely need to get myself that background stamp. I've seen it used often on Pinterest and it always looks great. I think you've used a wonderful combination of colours and the butterfly looks exquisite. I love it :)
