You are Unforgettable! Blue Fern Studios

Back with more Blue Fern Studios inspo! 

"You are Unforgettable"

This project was a true labor of love. This 12x12 Butterfly Grid is a lot of chipboard! There are so many directions you could do with this one but I decided to add color. It didn't turn out quite like I imagined it but it was fun nonetheless. And I'm anxious to use this piece again. 
I've used the Timeless Main Street as my background and added Calling Cards for my photo layers. 


The Majestic Frame was embossed with a powder from my stash but the title piece was done with Blue Fern Ebony Embossing Powder. After that, I got to work on the butterflies using paints and then Mystic Plum and Iris Embossing Powders. 


Everything got a little white to paint to help with blending.


Gold and violet flowers were added, although the gold are looking a little orange-ish here,


You can see here that parts of the grid were cut away in the corners so that the paper floral design would show.  Also, some of the butterflies were cut to allow me to lift their wings.


A final side view.
