The butterflies were flying Off the Edge of the card, that being the theme for Week 6 of the Less is More Challenge. I couldn't resist a second entry this week. The butterflies came from a little set which I bought some time ago in T**cos, (or it might have been S****burys, can't remember now. Nothing on them to say who made them). I painted them with Cosmic Shimmer paints. The two-tone effect of the paints is gorgeous, but unfortunately it doesn't show up on the photo. The sentiment is by Hero Arts. I could happily have covered the entire card with the butterflies, and spent all evening painting them, but since the challenge requires plenty of white space, I thought I'd better restrain myself!

I love this card. Not surprising really as I love all butterflies (including the beautiful ones on your blog sidebars). It was a labour of love to paint them all I'm sure. One day I am going to make time to try this challenge - it's just those white spaces....! Kate x
Gorgeous card Lynne, colouring is fab. x
Another beautiful card, Lynne. Those butterflies must have taken you ages, they are all different colours, but I bet they have a lovely shimmer.
Hope you have a great weekend, the weather's looking good for a change isn't it?

How lovely this is Lynne and you are so right about the colouring in. You can really lose yourself in it can't you. I love that sweet sentiment. The whole card speaks of gentleness to me.

I agree Lynne - colouring-in is so therapeutic. Love the way you've created the butterfly border and the placement of the wonderful sentiment is perfect.
