Purple birthday butterfly


Hi again, I stamped and painted a few of these butterflies towards the end of my holidays and now just need to make up some cards.

I'm linking up to the challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday where the theme is the letter H.
I tried inking this butterfly without heat embossing and didn't like it. The black needed to be shiny, so my H is for heat embossing and it's painted with twinkling H20's.

Thanks for visiting,
