Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
I stamped this beautiful butterfly on vellum with VersaMark Ink and heat embossed.
When cool, I colored the backside with Copic Markers.
Did you know that if you're doing this technique and you don't like the colors,
you can use a bit of alcohol on a swab or your 0 Copic to remove the color?
I found that I could do this several times without ruining the vellum.
I used part of this flower stamp inking and spritzing with water for
a place for this butterfly to visit.
Then I got a little carried away with the splatters.

I like the playfulness the colorful splatters adds to this, Bonnie! It's a charming card!
ReplyDeleteThe vellum makes a perfect butterfly medium. LIght and airy and that puffy flower is a perfect landing spot.

So pretty. Live that trick with rubbing alcohol, but it works better with thick vellum, which I need to get. 😂
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful Bonnie. I love the pretty flower and the vellum butterfly is a great addition. I always love the way vellum lifts a project to another level. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Have a good day! :)
