Swallowtail

To get the different colors on my butterfly I used three different embossing powders.  Up close the butterfly really sparkles and was one of the favorite cards at this months stamp class.
 
My card base is Wild Wasabi Card Stock with a layer of Pool Party and Whisper White.  I stamped my butterfly with Versa Mark Ink and sprinkled it with Pool Party, Smoky Slate, and Wild Wasabi Emboss Powder.  The important thing to remember is to place the remaining emboss powder back in the container each time before you add another color.  I then heated the entire image with my heat tool.
 
There are so many pretty embossing powders offered by Stampin' Up! so have fun experimenting with all of the colors.
 
The following were used:
Card Stock: Wild Wasabi #108641, Pool Party #122924, Whisper White #100730
Ink: Wild Wasabi #126959, Versa Mark #102283
Stamp Sets: Lots of Thanks #129687 w or #129690, Swallowtail #131943 w or #129216 c
Tools:  Heat Tool #129053,  Emboss Powder - Pool Party #129398, Wild Wasabi #123224, Smoky Slate #129396, Emboss Buddy #103083
