Sketch Challenge

Here is my card for last week's sketch challenge. I used this Origami paper I picked up at Michaels. The stamp is from Stampendous! I stamped and embossed the image. I layered the papers and added a felt butterfly. I had these oriental looking buttons and decided to add it to the body of the butterfly. I also added antennae and some SU! gold cording.

I will post my blog candy tomorrow for my belated one year Blogaversary!

    Pretty paper! Love the card and the butterfly!! Those origami papers are so pretty; I bought a pack a few months ago but have yet to use it; but now I remember why I borrowed that origami book from the library that I almost returned today...Yikes, I better put it to use now so I can return it soon, lol! Thanks for the inspiration!!

    This is amazing! It's totaly different form your usual style! Love the colors and that paper. Thought at first that you had embossed and colored until I read it. Really captures the Asian feel.
