FUSION Challenge!!

Happy New Year! New year, new design team, new challenges!
I made this card for the current Fusion card challenge - make sure you check out Fusion, to see all the amazing inspiration by the fabulous design team.  I'm so excited to be a part of such a phenomenal team! 
I used Hero Arts/Studio Calico Lattice background stamp, heat embossed in white on white. I wrapped some orange ribbon around that, as well as the Simon Says Stamp Thank You Tilted Banner Sayings stamps & die.  I cut 3 of the small butterflies using the die from Hero Arts Antique Flowers and butterflies set, and coloured them with Spiced Marmalade Distress ink and an ink blending tool.  I then layered that panel onto some Lawn Fawn Daphne's Closet patterned paper, and mounted that onto white cardstock.                  
 I added some Wink of Stella to the butterflies, just because ;)


Please join in with the new design team at Fusion - I'm looking forward to checking out all your creations!
Thanks for visiting ;)

    The lattice embossing is so beautiful on your card...and wow, you know how to blend ink! The butterflies have so much texture with the distress ink. Great job on the first challenge!
