I don't use butterflies much on my cards, for a reason unknown even to me, but I have this stamp from Nemory Box I really like.
I started by heat embossing the image, masking off areas using my own made stencil, then I used two blue DIs and blue brusho. I added WOS to the butterflies and colored the smallest ones with a white gel pen. 3 sequins were added for a little bit of shine.
This card is for:
