Here is part of my process and the work done so far.

Then I took a butterfly into Photoshop and simplified her. She got the cutout art -effect (gee, do you think I like to start there a lot) and then bumped up the contrast and simplified the lines/detail. I wanted the effect to be striking and pop-o-matic like the Illustrator bit. After I did those little adjustments I put the Flutterby into the illustrator piece and did my best to make it fit in.
Here was my result at that point:
And to tell you the truth, I love this eccentrically bright presentation right here. Too bad I had to go ahead and rough it up. mwhahahahahaha.
Actually it was interesting because, at this point, I had to do the thing I"m not so good at....bring it into Photoshop and play it with there. This is interesting only because I have barely any idea what to do with myself in Photoshop. Thank goodness for the internet. So after looking at a few different tutorials and doing a few google searches on how to do simplistic things that I have no idea how to do, I found what I think I was looking for and implemented it in an okay albeit amateur manner. I would break down everything I did for you here, but I'm not quite sure I could repeat it. haha.
Anyway, here is my final result for the day.
Any thoughts? Especially from those of you who might actually know what they're doing in PS?
Thanks! Have a great one!

Looks great! I really enjoy the color scheme-- it's not too over saturated. My eyes want to linger in the negative space above the butterfly. Maybe you might drop the "Iron Butterfly" text a little lower, or enlarge it to draw a little more lime light.
