Fanatical About Botanical

This is for Moxie Fab's Fanatical About Botanical challenge. I pulled out some retired Stampin Up stamp sets for this one, Botanicals & God's Beauty. I stamped some background in SU creamy caramel, added the leaves in old olive. I stamped the butterfly in Brillance black on PTI vellum, and then colored the back of the vellum with pumpkin pie, and then added the brighter highlights to the front.
I wanted the flower to bring some of the orange up to the top, so I used the aquapen and smeared some outside the lines. I am tickled pink at how it turned out.
