Just popping in with a card I created yesterday for two challenges.
I was inspired by two challenges for this card-Freshly Made Sketches #433 and this weeks The Color Throwdown #591.
I was inspired by two challenges for this card-Freshly Made Sketches #433 and this weeks The Color Throwdown #591.
I knew I wanted to do these two challenges in tandem so I dug through my supplies and pulled out this butterfly from PaperTrey Ink's A Bit More Butterfly Blooms stamp set. I had gotten this set AGES ago and had yet to ink it up. I decided this was the perfect card to ink it up for.
I heat embossed the butterfly and colored it in with Zig markers. I pulled these out to try something a little different. I haven't been doing a ton of coloring lately and when I do, it is always with Copic. I am not great with these but they were fun to use.
Even the ink smooshing I did with the purple marker that I colored in the tiny dots in the wings. Mixed with water it turned out a bit more pink than I had wanted. However, I decided that it looked good with the butterfly so I kept it.
The sentiment is also from a PaperTrey Ink stamp set-Words of Comfort. This particular sentiment stamp is the one I use over and over.
Well, that is all from me today. I want to thank you for taking the time to stop by.
Have a FABULOUS day!!
