For the background, I used three colors of ink to blend out the rainbow (see inks below). I then trimmed the panel and popped it behind the new DOTTED SLIMLINE SET 3 die.

For the butterflies, I stamped them out using Blackout Ink on both white cardstock and vellum. I then used 3 colors of Copic markers (pink, yellow, and blue) to blend out the rainbow colors over the entire butterfly image. As you can see I was not careful to stay in the lines. It really was about adding a quick color. For each butterfly, I just moved the markers in different directions overlapping the colors in between to give create the rainbow blend. I repeated the same thing to the vellum butterflies only this time I colored the underside of the vellum making sure I colored them in the same pattern as the coordinating paper layer.

Once the butterflies were colored I then added a thin layer of glue using a glue pen (sorry forgot to link below) to the top of the vellum wings. Once they were dry I then bent and curled the wings and glued the bodies together and added them to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped and heat-embossed onto a banner from the PEONY TRIMMINGS DIES.

Here is a closer look at the gorgeous sparkle on the wings. I am a bit obsessed with SPARKLE GLITTER!

 

I then just finished this Rainbow Butterflies Slimline card by dropping some coordinating pearls into the die-cut holes of the card panel.
