This uses their Butterfly & Flower set, along with the Hello set. I started with a piece of watercolor paper, and after determining where my sentiment would be, I stamped and masked the butterfly in a diagonal wave across the card. Then I went back in with my Spectrum Aqua floral set and some assorted watercolor pencils (for some of the blues, greens, and the magenta) and colored them in. I also stamped a few on a scrap piece of cardstock and die-cut those ones after coloring them. The "hello" is die-cut from black cardstock, and then I stamped the smaller sentiment underneath, and then popped the die-cut butterflies here and there along the front.
After days of gloom, it's turned out a beautiful sunny day here, just in time for the Cleveland Indains season opener! Enjoy your weekend!
I'd like to enter this into a new challenge to me, at Craft Stamper Magazine. The challenge this month there is
'Take A Technique: Colour'.
