Card of the Day - Rainbow Swallowtail

Hello and welcome back! Today's card was inspired by a couple of rainbow challenges this week.


I pulled the old Swallowtail stamp out (last appearing in the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog). It's stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black on Shimmery White Cardstock. I used the Stamparatus to stamp it twice so I'd get a nice dark image. I used my Blending Brushes to add the color to the butterfly.

 I added the smaller butterflies to cover up some smudges on the cardstock!

This card is for the challenges at Just Add Ink and Retro Rubber.



Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

--Cindi

    I miss out in getting this butterfly stamp, and I kick myself in the you know what for not getting it.
    Your card is gorgeous, love the colors of the rainbow on these pair of beautiful wings.
