Vintage Butterflies





I covered mount board with patterned paper from Tim Holtz paper stack. I distress and inked the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink
 
The butterflies from a Sizzix Alterations set French Flight were stamped with Stazon and then stamped again on to the same backing paper and cut with the matching die.
 
I added lace to the sides of the hanging with glossy accents
 
The leaves were die cut using the Tattered Leaves di - I used the same backing paper for this and then inked coloured them with Distress Spray
 
I made the flower from fabric - Distress Spray and then added pearl and some drops of Glossy Accents
 
I added the flower, leaves and one of the butterflies and then added some Glossy Accents on the butterfly
 
I stamped another flower image on to old book page inked and added it
 
I finished off with stamped quote and some chit chat words
 
A hanger was added to the back
