Things With Wings

I had a much needed boost today when I saw a card I entered into a Steampunk Challenge at 
That Craft Place was chosen to be in the Top 3, many thanks. Their current challenge is Things With Wings, a very wide choice but having recently purchased some Megaflakes from Indigo Blue, I've been playing with an old favourite stamp from Elusive Images, which has a butterfly as the focal point. 
I coloured white card with several DI, stamped the image with Black ink. I sprinkled some gold Frantage and heated from below to melt and set. I re-stamped the butterfly using Flitterglue and and sprinkled Lancashire Rose Megaflakes over the butterfly area. The butterfly was attached to the main card with a little silicone glue on the thorax. Matted onto gold mirri. Tied with two pieces of gold ribbon.
