New beginnings Butterfly

I think by now you've noticed that I love butterflies. They are so fun to color. For this one, I used my favorite color combo to color. My favorite combo for cards in general are black/white and red/pink, but I like to add a splash of green in there sometimes to make some things pop. Because of this, I am entering this in the Copic Creations challenge right now to use your favorite color combo. The markers I used are RV17, RV14, RV13 and YG11.

The theme of the card follows the Cute Card Thursday challenge this week: new beginnings. The sentiment is just perfect for those undergoing changes (maybe even with hesitation) like retirement or moving away.

Stamps: Take Flight (GKD)
Ink: Memento Tux blk, Copics
Paper: Certainly Celery, Little Yellow Bicycle
Others: lace and silver pearls by Michael's
