Butterfly Hearts for Twofer

Hello my friends.

I have another Twofer

I designed this card for my last class.

I removed the stamp from the wood block so we could use the MISTI.

I inked the hearts and stems then spritzed with a little water.

Usually I get too much water and it doesn't work well, but surprisingly,
I got it just right this time!

For the class I had the ladies ink, stamp and use a waterbrush to
eliminate possible frustration.

My splatters even worked well.  Whew!

I thought the hearts looked a little like butterfly wings from the side.
So my Twofer was born.

I inked party of the top heart and stamped then drew the body and antennae.

Since all butterflies need flowers, I stamped these little gems from a

Penny Black set and stamped them using Distress Markers.

A little smooshed ink on a palette and my water brush colored them in.
