I just had to make this card when I saw three challenges that this card fits the bill so to speak. The challenges are Addicted to CAS - Pink , Less is more - vellum SHOWCASED WINNER and Perfectly CAS - Emboss.
I used a frame by My Favourite Things
I used an embossing from Paper Discovery for the background in white and for the bottom layer of the butterfly.
The white background I wiped over pale pink inka gold over the raised areas
The base of the butterfly was inked in picked raspberry oxide ink pad. I used gold gilding wax over the raised area on the base of the butterfly.
Over the delicate top layer I had stamped some vellum using the same distress oxide ink, die cut and attached to white card to give it strength. I added teeny tiny pink gems for the body.
The top layer has been raised to look 3D
