Butterflies’ Birthday Wish

~ Sathya ~ 46 Comments
Hi Friends!

Am here today with a simple birthday card with a bit of Watercolor play with Brusho.

It’s been a long time since I played with it!

  • Took watercolor cardstock and sprayed water with a mister.
  • Added the Lime green Brusho pigment. One of my favorite of all for the pigments it holds : Green, Yellow and a dash of blue.
  • Heat set when the pigments moved and formed a desired look,
  • Using TCW ‘Art is’ stencil, stenciled over the colored area with Prima’s Platinum crackle paste.
  • Being a thin font style, the crackles aren’t that prominent. Nevertheless I love the metallic sheen of the platinum paste.
  • Stamped the sentiment from Inspired By Stamping ‘Wishing you’ using memento black ink onto the focal panel.
  • Using Ranger White EP , heat embossed the butterflies from Stamplorations Trendy Butterflies2  onto Vellum.
  • Fussy cut those butterflies and added to the focal panel.
  • This panel is trimmed and mounted onto a baby blue top fold 4×6″ card base.
  • Few clear dew droplets added as final touch.
Hope you like it!
Happy Crafting!

Word Inspiration: Am much inspired by Fantasy world from my childhood. Fantasy means dreams and Imaginations to me.The focal image depicts my kind of Fantasy, which I housed inside the tangling mosses with underlying textural layers. The word band focuses on the inner meaning: “Reality has limits and Imagination is boundless”
Creative challenge : Used a pair of metal wings on a metal key Dreams.
