ISSC15 - Beautiful Butterfly

Hi everyone! It's time for another iSpy Sketch Challenge and this week is a bit of a doozie...according to those who have a harder time with curved panels anyway ;) This week's challenge is ISSC15 is from Leanne W (From Leanne @ SCS) and is based on this card.

 Now here is what the sketch looks like and keep in mind that the circles can be any shape so I chose to use a butterfly from my Clear Dollar Stamps set called Beautiful Butterflies.

As you can see from the photo below, that I actually coloured up the butterfly twice and glued the pieces together on the body of the butterfly. I then bent up the top layer of wings to kind of make it like it's in flight :)

 The big curvy panel is completely sponged with various inks on water colour paper and the leaves have been created with the negative piece of paper from a die cut using the Sizzix Leaf Die. I love this technique with dies because you can create all kinds of beautiful backgrounds and the intense colours usually pack a punch :)

Thanks for joining me today and don't forget to see what some of the Special Agents have created for you this week. Don't be put off by the curvy panel ladies, because it's a fairly quick way to make a card and it adds such a unique layer to your cards :D
