Butterflies on distressed timber.

Hi everyone, it's the end of the weekend and the end of school holidays for me.

I did get some much needed work done around the house and rested a lot, so I feel ready to tackle Monday head on lol!

I wanted to play along with the distress challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday. So I've used a few distress inks on this timber stamped panel and distressed the edges with a tool. 

I decided on blue butterflies as this card has such a masculine feel. They are fussy cut and  coloured with inktense pencils.

At Happy Little Stampers Mixed Media Challenge the theme is texture.

I've used stamps, distress ink, inktense pencils, and my texture elements are distressed edges and the frantage enamel embossed sentiment.

I'm also joining the take it make challenge at Craft Stamper Magazine. The theme is anything goes as long as there is stamping on your project.

At Seize the Birthday I'm playing along with the anything goes no toppings option.

Supplies:

 Darkroom Door timber stamp; antique linen, pumicestone, weathered wood and vintage photo distress inks; Hero Arts antique engravings butterfly stamp; Stamplorations birthday die; versamark ink and aged black frantage enamel embossing powder; inktense pencils; happy sentiment sticker;

Tim Holtz distressing tool.

Thanks for visiting,
