Addicted to Stamps and More #235

What a lovely butterfly.  This is your inspiration for challenge #235 at Addicted to Stamps and More.
More than inspired, it looks like I actually CASEd the photo.  First I smooshed Broken China Oxide Ink onto watercolor cardstock and then stamped the large butterfly from PTI.  On another piece I stamped the outline of the smaller stamp numerous times in my MISTI to get a good black, then stamped the insets and the sentiment with the same Broken China.  Some blue and black splatters, a black sentiment addition and a few sequins were added to finish it off.

How would you be inspired by the photo?  We'd love to see your card in the gallery.
