Flutterby

I stamped and embossed the butterfly image in gold on white watercolour paper. I coloured parts of the image with chalks: purple and blue for the bigger butterfly, blue for the smaller and mixes of blue, purple, green and light brown for the watches. I also dabbed chalks here and there on the background, but fainter than in the highlighted bits. I first thought of adding the mulberry paper squarely behind the image but after a bit of playing around decided that it looked much better when angled. I fixed the whole thing onto lilac handmade card blank and added a strip of self-adhesive ribbon.
