A Rajah butterfly



I'm doing the Rajah which is an orange colour


I pricked the pattern and then secured the card to a piece of wood with washi tape. This was to stop the card stock from warping when I applied the ink. next I applied a diluted layer of ink and when it was dry stitched the butterfly.
