Butterfly card
Good afternoon friends, how are you all today?
Doing ok I hope! I have been getting very inky
making my usual 'Less is More' card.
My card was showcased last week too,
thank you so much !!!
The theme this week is......
Faux Bleach
Hmm that got me thinking alright! I
made a few attempts which turned out
rubbish. So I ditched the alcohol inks
and shiny photo paper idea and used
Distress inks instead.
Thank you Anita for the idea, soooo
much easier!!!....and relax ;) I made a
distress background with random colours.
Then stamped my butterfly and blotted
some of the colour off it.
I edged my topper with a gold pen and
sprayed a bit of gold ink on one corner.
I used my spanky new die and gold card
for the sentiment.
I stamped the top sentiment and gave it the
same inky spray and job done! I dedicate
this card to all my amazing crafty friends as
whenever I see your creations I think you
are all just AMAZING!!!
Phew, hard going this week,and lots of
inky messiness but got there in the end.
Have a go everyone, it is easy once
you try ;) Have a good week friends!
ps. Wasn't feeling that great yesterday,
virus I think,... still recovering.
So late with my commenting....so sorry.
I will visit you all now I promise!

It's fabulous Viv....... I do love the colours you've used for the butterfly panel... they look so good together - and the gold really gives it the WOW factor.... really love the word die cut in the mirri card - I'm definitely going to have to give that a go!! It's about time I used some of my mirri stash!
