Brushos, Snippets and a Butterfly


This is a result of some Brusho play.

I had 3 splotches that looked like flowers.

I tried stamping outlines and totally messed up the piece.
(Should have used the MISTI.)

I was able to salvage a snippet by placing it behind the circle frame.

Then I added a butterfly die cut from another snippet.

All these snippets so I'm taking this over to


And it so happens that Di is the Guest Designer over at

Where it's RECIPE WEEK.
and the recipe is
SNIPPETS
and they're celebrating a special day.
A very happy birthday, Chrissie!


I'm so glad you could stop by today.

Enjoy!

  13. Wow -- this card has pow! Love how you saw the splotches as flowers and made them come alive. Plus playing up the vibrancy of the brushos colors with the black b'fly and border. You're my heroine for inspiration!

  18. This is so pretty and elegant Bonnie and the black butterfly and the sentiment against the white and then that pop of red and orange is wonderful and the outline of the flower is just perfect with the round aperture. x

  22. Overstamping the brushoes with the outline flowers looks wonderful, Bonnie. I would say my MISTI has saved a few stamping disasters. Thank goodness we have them.
