Pure Prairie Spirit ~ Power Poppy

 

Hello friends!!  It is day two of our Power Poppy sneak peaks, and for this day we're focusing on a new set called Pure Prairie Spirit.  It features the large Digital bouquet from Pure Prairie Bouquet, along with some beautiful butterflies and of course, the perfect sentiments!  

I chose to focus on one of the butterflies and two of the sentiments for my card today.  Now, I realize Monarchs are traditionally orange and black, but I took creative license here to match the papers I wanted to use as my backgrounds.  I wanted to work with vellum and a sweet little tag to feature some sentiments (which I often leave off of the outside of my cards so they are more versatile...I add the sentiments to the inside later when I know the occasion.)  This is what I came up with.  The butterfly is colored twice and the front wing is popped up a bit because if you've followed my blog, you know I love dimension.

I also added a bit of sparkle to the butterfly with a Clear Wink of Stella pen for a hint of sparkle.  If you click on the photo, the sparkle is more obvious.

That's it for my project today.  Check out these gals' blogs for some more incredible inspiration!!
