Metallic Watercoloured Butterflies

 


Hi everyone, I had some butterflies left after my last card and thought I'd create something more CAS for CAS Mix Up Challenge


I painted some cardstock with metallic watercolour paints then diecut the butterflies.
There's a vellum layer under the wings to keep them looking delicate.

The stamp is one I received when I bought some second hand Stampin Up stamps so not sure of the brand. Inked in Versafine clair nocturne and clear embossed.

I'm also linking up to these challenges.


Mix It Up Challenge Blog, anything goes with the option of Clean & Simple.

Supplies:
Memory Box glade butterfly die; metallic watercolour paints; sentiment stamp brand unknown; versafine clair nocturne ink & clear ep; vellum; hammered card base.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
