To create my background, I started by spreading Picked Rasberry and Seedless Preserves distress inks onto my Ranger craft sheet. I spritzed both colors with water and added them to my paper using a paint brush. I do have some Ranger distress watercolor card stock but for this I used PTI's Stamper's Select and I was pleasantly surprised how well it worked. It warped some at first but I used my heat tool to speed up the drying time and it helped to flatten the card stock back out. Today I finished my card by adding a die cut butterfly and flag banner on which I stamped my sentiment.
I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Very pretty card! I like how you have created your two-tone butterfly, and the water-colouring behind it really grounds the image. Beautiful. Thanks for joining us at CASology this week!
