Hi everyone, I was excited to be asked to be a guest designer at JUGS - Just Us Girls this month!
The theme this week is butterflies, one of my favourites!
The team have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope you get the chance to play along.
This butterfly was diecut from one that had some distress oxide inks and water smooshed onto glossy photo paper. When dry the chalky residue was wiped off with a baby wipe.
Such a fun technique as the results are always different.

Congrats on your guest designer spot. This card is a real beauty. I thought the butterfly wings were alcohol ink at first glance so thanks for putting me right. I love the gold highlights too. a brilliant card xx
Such a beautiful card, Cathy! I've never heard of the technique of wiping the chalking Oxide away with a baby wipe. I'll have to give that a try because the result looks gorgeous on your card! Thanks for playing along with us at Addicted to Stamps and More. ~Melissa (DT)
