Good morning dear friends!! I'm starting the year off with a crafty focus!! I've been enjoying my new stamps and watercolor paper from PTI and it feels so good to be active in my craft room again!! I decided to get in on the fun with Papertrey Ink's first blog hop of the year!! Here's the challenge:
and here's my take on the challenge:
I used the turquoise color as the base of my card and drew in some of the dark colors to add depth. I added the pretty little flower accent to bring in a light pop of orange. For the base I used a sheet of polka dot patterned paper from an old Crate Paper line called open book. I inked the polka dot paper with Aqua Mist ink and layered it over an Aqua Mist card base. I then colored the blossom in the Bold Blossom Water Color sheet with Copic Markers and I also colored the little flower with a Copic Marker as well.
I die cut the butterflies several times out of water color paper and vellum and layered them over the water color base. I added a little lace for fun and then added a stamped banner for the sentiment.
Supplies Used:
Aqua Mist Cardstock and Ink
Copic Markers:
C00 - Cool Gray
