I've seen this kind of layout several times for large flowers, possibly even for this set. I wanted something soft and muted, so I stamped the images themsevles in black, but then colored them in with blender pen and ink rather than the straight markers. (I tried one with the marker and it was much too dark and bold)
The butterfly has glitter on her body and the spots on her wings. I did another one with the entire wing glittery - which my teenage son thought was great - but I felt it was too much for the delicateness I wanted on this card. The butterfly is cut out and her wings fold up off the card, but that doesn't show up so well in the photo.
The colors are also a little off. When I tried to scan it, the light green in "friends" didn't show up. When I tried to simply photograph it instead, the colors turned out a different shade. Hopefully you can still get the gist of it.
