Pinkfresh Butterflies

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I had a playdate with my Glimmer machine and a sweet friend.


Another sweet friend had given me a gift certificate to Pinkfresh Studio and these
hot foil plates were ready to get warmed up.

I hot foiled these gorgeous butterflies onto mixed media paper and the
Art Deco plate onto some colored cardstock using gold foil.

I used Distress Markers and my waterbrush to color the butterflies and
cut some hearts out of a piece of the Art Deco.

Here you can see the glow of the gold....


You can't really see the subtle embossed background that adds just a bit of texture
and the frame was cut using some Pinkfresh Slim Rectangle dies.


Challenges:
NBUS #35 - Never Before Used Schtuff




I also watercolored the full butterfly and perched it on a full Art Deco piece
to say Thank You.
