butterfly bonus!!


oohhhhh, i had fun tonight! felt as if a ton of BRICKS have been lifted! i actually spent time playing! for the first time in many weeks! i had stamped lots of these butterflies a while ago on watercolour paper - i was making samples of different colouring techniques (yes, i will show them all one day with instructions). as you know, i am cleaning the table so i can start scrapping again! i decided not to throw anything away, but to really use what was on the table first!
i coloured the butterfly with my Derwent INKTENSE Pencils that i bought myself a while ago, and used my Aquabrush to watercolour it. i added some stickles to the yellow areas and the dark edges.
i then punched 3 holes in the card randomly with my new EK Success metal 1" punch - LOVE that thing and glued soome old dictionary paper to the back. i then used my other EK Success punch, TINY DOTS???? to do the edges. not perfect, i know - if anyone knows the secret to how these edge punches work - please let me know!!
i used a sentiment from an old set and VOILA! another card! i love these little ones! have a super evening all you creative people - i have a very long day ahead of me tomorrow and i have to be FRESH!! good night!

Wow this is stunning! Really focuses the eye on the main feature! Your details are gorgeous! Am impressed with the inktense pencils-I had fancied buying some a bit back but hadn't really seen anyone use them so wasn't too sure how vibrant they could be-think I'll have to get me some now! Gorgeous! Hugs, Rowena
