Fluttering Butterfly Birthday

 Today I made a birthday card for a few challenges.  

I stenciled the background then added the Lavinia stampings and the Better Press Happy Birthday.


Here's a close up to show the shimmer added to the wings with a yellow glitter gel pen.

I combined this weekends Splitcoast Stampers Inspiration Challenge and Featured Stamper challenge for my design

I love that stencilled background. It works so well with those silhouette stamps. I don't think I would have thought to do that on that type of background so thanks for the inspiration. I love it xx
