Another card using a sticker from my doodle coloring books!! This one is from the Butterfly Garden book. I coloured it with watercolour pencils and then applied water over them with a round brush. It is a different look than applying colour with a brush. It is certainly easier to fill in the small spaces with a pencil crayon. I applied this sticker to white cardstock so the border disappears significantly which works out alright. I manually embossed the background after applying the sticker. That was not the plan but when I gently laid it on the surface to mark off the borders I was not able to remove it so I just went with it. I sponged the outer edge with a bit of warm blue ink and then machine stitched on some ribbon flags with white thread on the right hand side. I like the polka dot ribbons!! I added a layered punchie greeting just below the butterfly. Thinking it needed a bit of something, I added little rhinestones to some of the dots on the butterfly and also a little red heart rhinestone to the body. Adds dimension along with the ribbon.
