Dragons Dream - Tag it On #136

Hello, and welcome along for another challenge from the Dragons Dream.  May's choice this time - on your tag, we'd like you to use orange, purple, and butterflies.  Don't forget you must use one real stamp.

This is mine
I used Dylusions spray Squeezed Orange on a tag, then blended some Ripe Persimmon distress ink round the edges.

The leaves are from the Dylusion stencil and I used vintage photo distress ink.
I made the butterflies (stamp by Wendy Vecchi) by spritzing Crushed Grape Dylusion ink, on white card stock, and adding Dusty Concord and Seedless Preserves distress ink.

I used foam pads to mount the butterflies, bending the wings up a little to get the feel of movement, and added some Stickles for their bodies (Black Diamond)

The sentiment is also by Wendy Vecchi. Purple fibres are from my stash.
