Outlawz Wednesday Sketch Time

 Hello everyone. I hope you are all well. A new Wednesday Sketch challenge begins today over at Outlawz and we are sponsored by Anne's Digital Art
I have used Anne's Corner 1, Butterfly 3 and Birdhouse Wild Roses images as my focal image. I arranged in in PSE, printed out on Springhill Digital and colored with Promarkers and Sakura Stardust glitter gel pens. I used some Lawn Fawn plaid paper and KIMemories card stock to mat. My Bazzill scalloped square card base is all I had left from a pack of them I bought years ago. The horizontal scalloped strip at top was made with a Fiskars border punch. The bow was cut using a Spellbinders die. 
 
The challenge sketch is at left. I decided to flip it 180 degrees.
I fussy cut the butterfly and base-colored her with Promarkers, then added lots of glitter gel penning. I edged the focal image with a Promarker after stippling with Distress Ink blues. The birthday sentiment was stamped with Versafine Clair Warm Breeze ink.
 
At left is the inside and at right is the back of the card.
Here is a close-up to show the glitter gel penning.
And final view. Thanks for visiting me today and all the best to you and yours! XOXO 

MY CHALLENGE PLAYLIST:
BOTH! 😀
I chose first column on left: 2+Layers/Color Yellow/Flowers
I've used digi images from our sponsor Anne's Digital Art

Gorgeous card. I love how you've played with the blue tones of the different cardboards to create contrast with the rest of the colours of the card. Your butterfly is beautiful. Thanks for joining us at My Time To Craft. Hugs, María.
