Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday!
and the theme is butterflies.
You can always play along with our anything goes birthday option too, and we all need more birthday cards!
The design team and our birthday guest have lots of wonderful ideas to inspire you, so I hope you can play along.
A while ago I had a play with an acrylic paint pouring technique and some yupo paper.
It was a lot of fun, very messy, but fun!
I had a large enough piece leftover to diecut this butterfly and the background panel. The butterfly is almost camouflaged on the background but the added bling pops it out a little bit.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
Watercooler Wednesday where its all about occasions.
Addicted to Stamps & More where the theme is clean and simple.
Supplies:
Acrylic paint; floetrol; yupo; Stampin Up Bigz Beautiful Butterflies die; sentiment sticker.
Thanks for visiting,

Your acrylic pour is gorgeous, Cathy. Beautiful mix of colours. The camouflaged butterfly is super fun and creative. x
ReplyDeleteThis paint pouring technique looks stunning Cathy and a great idea to cut the butterfly from the same piece, and I love the texture on the background card...perfect! x
ReplyDeleteThat's some absolutely awesome material you've created with paint pouring - the background and the butterfly look gorgeous! The butterfly looks camouflaged, but isn't really, and that looks really great!
