I've featured some beautiful Hero Arts stamps from a set called Antique Engravings which I purchased a few weeks ago but I can't find them in store at the moment, so I have linked up another stamp set called Papillions which has one of these pretty butterflies in. I've discovered some gorgeous new super sparkly glitter by Hero Arts which I have covered the butterflies in & as you know sparkle makes me happy lol.
Today's card has been lightly distressed with Antique Linen distress ink and scissors. The hearts background paper has been created using Simon Says Stamps lovely Drawn Hearts stamp & Khaki ink, & the sentiment is from the Handwritten Sentiments set.
The copic colours I've used are -
Large butterfly - YR07, YR04, YR01, YR00 / E33, E31, E30 / E87, E84, E81 / N5, N3, N1.
