Butterfly Muse

Hi All

I am playing along with Muse again this week.

Our Muse is Joan and she has created a gorgeous card for us. As soon as I saw her card I started creating. I was drawn to the water coloured background and the white embossing. I actually made 2 backgrounds and left them over night to dry and flatten. I am not so happy with one of them but hope to see what I can do with it later.

Here is the one I finished this morning. I embossed the butterfly with sparkly white embossing powder, fussy cut it before adhering to my water colour background. I coloured the centre of the butterfly really to hide the adhesive!


Here is Joan's card:


Hopefully I will be able to rescue the other card and post later in the week, although I wouldn't hold your breath!!

I will also enter this into:

  17. Wow Sandie, the water colouring is so ethereal in those soft colours and always love that butterfly, it looks incredible in vellum. . And colouring the vellum to hide the glue is such a brilliant idea!!!

  18. I love your watercolor backgrounds, just a bit of randomly added color and the result is amazing. And white embossing on vellum is so lovely and seems to be quite a trend at the moment.
