Birthday Butterfly

Good morning! Yay it's Friday! 
I have the pleasure of my little man's company this weekend, and I can't wait! :)

I have a card for you today, using an stamp I haven't used for a while...


Here is the beautiful Swallowtail stamp and I have coloured it with Island Indigo ink; pen and inkpad with blender pen. 


I used the fab new Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder to give the illusion of flight and movement, enhanced by the butterfly not being flush on the card.

I will be honest, I'm not overly thrilled with this card...I think the butterfly could have done with more colour...what do you think?

Supplies
Stamps - Swallowtail, Simply Sketched
Ink - Basic Black, Island Indigo
Designer Series Paper - In Colour 2012/14 (ret)
Ribbon - Smoky Slate Chevron
Embossing - Stylish Stripes
