Butterflies and CAS

Back to CAS lol I used distres inks through a Creative Expressions stencil for the background-stamped the butterflies (a craft mag freebie set from IndigoBlu)coloured with promarkers then overstamped again and used a stamped sentiment from the same set.Matted and layered onto a scrap of black cardstock and done.

Ooooh, this is pretty! Not only do I love the butterfly panel, but also the textured white base. I have some cardstock like that and have been hoarding it, which actually does me no good, does it? Sheesh.
