I am a butterfly aficionado. So I loved this stamp when I saw it. I stamped it with black stazon ink onto an encyclopedia page. The big butterfly kinda reminded me of a monarch butterfly although the wings are not quite the right shape to be a monarch. For each butterfly on this card I used 2 different colors of markers to watercolor.

I am not a big fan of the life choices Miley Cyrus is making these days, but I really liked her song Butterfly fly Away. That is what  I was hearing in my head as I was making this card.

I used the butterfly, prayers sentiment and floral image on my card. I added quilled roses to the floral image. I added burlap, twine and rhinestones to finish it off. This card is going to be going to my pastor's wife, Michelle. Even though the name for this set is LOTS OF WORDS, letting someone know that they are being prayed for is ALL the words we really need.
