BUTTERFLY TREE
my first digitally created image :)
done with context free and gimp.
BUTTERFLY TREE CARD
i noticed that when creating a card the roots of the tree on the bottom get totally cut off…
therefore i added a framed version, which looks like this (click on the image to preview as card):

Brilliant for a beginner this is amazing
As a further extension to your original you might try to make the petals transform slowly into butterflies. (Just an idea)

Chase Ankeny, 4 months ago
Very nice. I actually like the card with the butterflies flying off the edge much better, it is much more open and in many ways, I think, better captures the playful and almost ephemeral nature of the work a bit better.
Karen Cook, 4 months ago
This is so lovely – it’s balanced really well with the large branch on the left and the little one on the right. I also like the minimalist colour and the butterflies that are subtlely placed around the image!
