Raindrops and butterflies

Hi everyone, had such a busy week that the craft room goodies have been neglected!

I've also been potting up some herbs and flowers as Spring is definitely here, so the verandah will be colourful soon!

I made some more of these background panels and decided to add some butterflies to finish one off.

The water droplets were stamped in versafine ink then clear embossed. I blended a couple of distress inks over the top and the embossed design resisted the ink.

To highlight the droplets I went in to each one with a water brush and dampened it, then used some paper towel to blot and remove some of the colour. It's a great tip that I saw on Eileen's blog.

The butterflies were fussy cut and coloured with inktense pencils.

I'm linking up to the challenge at Simon Says Wednesday where the theme is totally resistable.

At Just Add Ink the theme is to add G. I've gone with Green!




I'm also linking up to the Customer Creation Challenge for October at
Designs by Ryn.


At Word Art Wednesday the theme is anything goes with the option of using the free scripture on your project.


Supplies:
Water droplet stamp from Designs by Ryn; Memory Box cocoa bean butterfly stamp; versafine ink & clear ep; distress inks; inktense pencils; Kaisercraft mini sentiment stamp.
