Several years ago I bought the Feeling Groovy stamp set from Verve because all the sentiments are lines from some of my favorite songs. This one is an oldie but goodie from Orleans. Go ahead and
queue it up in the background, then come on back and see what it spawned ...
I combined two challenges ... this sketch from
iSpy Sketches:
and this color challenge from
colourQ:
And this came out:
Yeah, it looks out of focus, because there is so much shadow. Here is a closer shot of a few of the butterflies that might be a little easier on the eyes:
I colored all those pearls with a Sharpie. I did.
Alright, now, everyone sing along:
You're still the one that makes me laugh ... still the one that's my better half ... we're still havin' fun, and you're still the one! You're welcome for the ear worm. :)
Thanks for stopping by!
gogeous butterflies...love the colouring of the pearls too...and the antennae are just perfect!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the butterflies.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful!! Thanks so much for joining us this week at the ColourQ!!
ReplyDeletei will be very relieved indeed if "you're still the one" is the song i walk away from here stuck in my head. i suspect, however, it will be "feelin' groovy" and then i might have to chop my head off with some decorative scissors and THEN turn them on you for starting it!!! :) :) :)
ReplyDeleteon the other hand, this card is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO FLIPPIN' ♥♥♥FABULOUS♥♥♥ you are probably already forgiven. holy wow. those BFFs (butter-flies, forever?!) are BEYOND awesome. sheesh. i LOVE this!!!! ♥♥♥
ps: 90% of my copic usage? re-coloring pearls or bling. fact. :/
