Sending Golden Butterfly Wishes



This is my last card for today (laundry has been calling all weekend!)  It was fun to pull out this Stampin Up stamp: Swallowtail which I (gasp!) hadn't used before!  Not sure how that happened - except for the fact that I probably have too many stamps to choose from.  Ok, you're right, you can never have too many stamps!

I gold embossed the butterfly then watercolored (using liquid floor wax...it makes the ink a bit thicker which makes the colors bolder).  The word die is from Simon Says Stamps.

Thanks to these wonderful challenges for the inspiration!
