DDIC #27 Inspired butterflies





Today's Inspiration Challenge for the Divine Divas comes from The Inglenook Decor Photo gallery and has some really interesting bits and pieces to choose from. Frames, butterflies, shells, silver jewelry, necklaces.....WOW!







I chose to go with the lacy frames and butterfly images, and used only the white and silver metallic. I used no stamps or ink, but had fun with my piercer, nestabilities, and punches.



Just for fun I added some silver pearls, and a strip of Martha stewart paper lace flowers I've had for eons.



Please feel free to join us in the challenge, and be sure to check out what the other Divas have done with this by going to my sidebar and clicking on their names.

see you in two weeks with another fun Inspiration piece!!
