JustRite Stampers Friday Challenge this week is to create a spring card with a butterfly. I Started the card with BasicGrey "Picadilly" paper and a JustRite "Breath of Spring" stamp. The flower image was stamped and cut with a Spellbinder oval. Copic markers were used to color the image and Antique Linen distress finished off the oval. The stamped image was mounted on the new Spellbinder Floral oval. A JustRite "Happy Everything" "Happy Birthday" was stamped and cut with a Spellbinder Tag. While taking the Tim Holtz online class he showed how to use the Rock Candy Crackle Paint and I thought it would make a perfect butterfly. Hope you can see it in the picture on the right (it will enlarge if you click on the picture). I cut the butterfly using the Sizzix die and added the paint and allowed it to air dry. After it had dried I used my Memento markers on it and added some pearls to finish it. I put this on a ribbon that was colored with Antique Linen Distress ink and added a pearl pin colored with a Copic Marker-RV32 . This is a 4.25 x 5.5 card. Copic markers used include Y15, Y18, RV32, B21, YG91, YG93 Hope you enjoy.
Ohhh, Mary Jo, this is sooo PRETTY -- from that gorgeous paper to that crackled butterfly and right through to the beautiful ribbon & stick pin!!!
