Less is More - Week 72 - Theme

This week Chrissie and Mandi  at Less is More have tasked us with the following challenge:

 Third week of the month and Theme Week
We want to see
Something Shiny

It's been a bit rushed this week as we got our first challenges up and running at Addicted to Stamps so I'm running late for this challenge.  Anyway, hopefully this comes under the less is more ethos.......... I started off by stamping 3 different sized butterflies (from the Wedding Butterfly set by Wild Rose Studio) using Staz-On ink onto Clearly for Art Modeling Film, cutting them out and then heating with a heat gun til soft and you can mold them.  The sentiment, again from Wild Rose Studio, was stamped in Staz-On, punched with the scalloped square Stampin Up punch and then triple glazed with clear embossing powder.  I took a square card blank and added a piece of matching ribbon and used silicone glue to attach my butterflies.  I've popped the sentiment up, added some matching pearls on the top right and a single diamond gem to each of the butterflies.  Apologies for the quality of the photos but this was a bit difficult to capture!
