Butterfly and Chrysanthemum

For today's card, I wanted to feature one of the new Valentine images (Chrysanthemum Frame G1857) as well as some of the new dies (Darla Butterfly 98264 and Vivienne Butterfly 98265).

To create the background, I stamped the Chrysanthemum Frame onto Parchment cardstock with black ink and then colored the flowers and leaves with Prismacolor pencils.  I then distressed the whole thing with some Tea Dye Distress ink and a foam blending tool. 

To create the butterfly, I cut out some latte Moroccan paper using the Darla Butterfly die and then layered some Raspberry cardstock that I cut with the Vivienne Butterfly.  To finish everything, I added some pink pearls.
