I used mostly inks and stencils, the only stamping is the quote by Impression Obsession. The butterflies were inked thorough a stencil after creating the rest of the background. I added little dots and outlined with a white Gelly Roll Pen. I also added some Silver Frantage.
Thanks for stopping by & have a great day,
Shirley

That's a wonderful card Shirléy! WOW!
I love the effect you have got with the stencils, fabulous! And not your usual colour palette, but I like this one too! :D
Spotted your link at another blog so was able to zip over to see what you're up to. Love the Bokeh & Butterflies on this one. Looks smashing with the bold background colors. It's gorgeous - as always. Hope things are fine in your part of the world. TFS & Hugs

This is a bit different from your usual style Shirley and I love it. The touches of white - the circles and outlines are brilliant and the italic font of the sentiment works really well. Great work. Hope all is well in your part of the world! Elaine xxx

Beautiful work Shirley. I love the butterfly stencil. I would have guessed it was a stamp. Love your Bokeh technique. Great minds think alike. Have a super (quiet) weekend enjoying the sun in your back yard.
Gorgeous card Shirley, love all the inky layers and the butterflies look stunning.
