To create this card I started with a panel of watercolor cardstock.  I then heat embossed the butterfly before wetting the whole panel with water and a brush.  Next I "smooshed" some distress ink onto a craft mat and begian picking the colors up and dropping them in letting the water do the work.  Once I had covered all of the butterfly I went back over to make certain areas darker.  I then went in with some blue distress ink to cover the rest of the background.  When it was dry I then stamped the sentiment and added the strip of patterned paper down the side.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you will have time to join in our challenge!
Happy Crafting!

Soft Pink, Silver and White

This is such a pretty and delicate card in real life and extremely difficult to photograph.  The pink is lighter than the photo shows but I had to darken the image a bit so the detail of the butterfly would show.

The background was stenciled with light spun sugar distress ink then lightly sprayed with pewter distress spray.  The corner image was embossed with silver embossing powder with a such of shimmer.

The plant was cut from vellum and attached with Paper Glaze. 

The vellum butterfly was heat embossed with white powder, cut out and tool embossed on the body and the wing sections closest to the body, it's attached to the card with foam tape directly under the body.
