by Els for Elizabeth Craft Designs
"The Butterfly is colored with the Copic Markers on top of our Cool Diamond Silk Micro Fine glitter (642 or 641). The butterfly has two extra pieces on top to give it a 3D effect (nr 2539 in black). The flower border is cut out of our Velvet XL adhesive sheets in Pink. I used the eClips for this design. Added glitterdots (nr 7018) and glitter flowers (nr 7048) for the center of the flowers. Background is a patchwork of Shimmer Sheetz."

"In this picture you can see the 3D effect on the butterfly."

And I just received word that the order from Elizabeth Craft Designs has just shipped, i.e., Shimmer Sheetz (including the new colors), the new velvet adhesive papers, and those new bird dies we saw at CHA. So sometime next week, we're going to have lots of fun!

Enjoy your chocolate!
