Another day to celebrate spring butterflies (even though we're still stuck in the high 90s F for our weather) and this time I used a beautiful image from Conie Fong called "Butterfly Princess." I decided on a sweetly feminine color palette of mostly pink.
The image was printed onto textured, water color paper and colored with water colors and a very thin paint brush. Even the sentiment was done with a brush and water color. I cut the image with one of my oldest Spellbinders dies, embossing the edges as I ran it through the Caliber machine. The background dp is from Stampin' Up and the lace came from my stash. I finished it with one of my signature bows, hand-sewn with a pearl, and 'dyed' with a ProMarker.

Don't forget that we have a monthly challenge running over on the Conie Fong FB site, and you still have plenty of time to color up a Conie Fong image and get something entered.
Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
