Tarnished Brass Butterfly


Hi everyone, my stencil experimenting is continuing!
I wasn't happy with one try and used it to diecut the butterflies, then had another go with the stencil.
I'll keep practicing lol!

I'm linking up to some challenges:

    Wow, this is really pretty. I love the gold and the stenciling is just fine. I think it is just up to you to do as much or little as you want when you stencil. I've seen some with a teeny little stencil showing and some completely covered. Mounted on the black made it so elegant.
