Then, using my cuttlebug and a butterfly die, I made a butterfly stencil. I used my color mister with a really rust marker to spritz color over the stencil. That tool works better for just a little misting. My hand got really tired - lol. Then leaving the stencil in place, I stamped the swirl from priceless in night of navy ink on the butterfly.The flowers I used is a new stamp that I got from Cornish Heritage Farms called modern lily. I colored it with markers (brocade blue and always artichoke) and spritzed it with water before stamping. I did this three times. Then I used the sentiment from embrace life and stamped it a number of times randomly in night of navy. I distressed and sponged the edges of the dp, chocolate chip and really rust layers.
I then added the layered photo corner punches & brads, and word window punches with eyelets & natural hemp. The main panel is popped up with mounting tape.
Supplies:
stamps: priceless, embrace life (SU), modern lily (CHF)
ink: chocolate chip, really rust, brocade blue, always artichoke, night of navy
paper: chocolate chip, really rust, night of navy, dp (from a stack)
other: cuttlebug, cb butterfly die, color mister, water spritzer, photo corner punch, brads, piercing tool, word window punch, crop-a-dile, eyelets, natural hemp, distressing tool, sponge, mounting tape
I'm so glad you stopped by.
