Watercoloured butterfly

Hi everyone, got some birthdays coming up so need to get a stash of cards ready!

This butterfly was cut from a scrap of watercoloured paper.(I used the bigger panels behind some diecuts for a stained glass effect). The happy diecut was inked with versamark and sprinkled with aged black frantage. When heat embossed it gives a great enamelled look.

I'm linking up to a few challenges:

At Less is More it's recipe week, add dimension.

I've popped the butterfly up on foam dots to add dimension.

Using the scrap of watercolured paper means I can pop over to the snippets playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.

It's anything goes at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday. 

(This is the only badge that would copy here!)

It's also anything goes at Word Art Wednesday

 (with the option of using the inspirational bible verse on your card too).

At Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge it's anything goes with the option of using stencils.

I've used a scrap of watercolour paper painted with a mixture of Kuretake Gansai paints and some Finetec gold shimmer paint, for the butterfly.

Supplies:

 Stampin Up Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die; Memory Box Moonlight Butterfly die for the body; Kuretake Gansai & Finetec gold watercolour paints; Poppystamps jumbled birthday die; versamark ink and aged black frantage embossing enamel; Kaisercraft birthday stamp, versafine ink & clear ep; Stately embossing folder.

Thanks for visiting,
