Colors of Summer Challenge over on the IO Stamps Blog!!
I wanted to play along with the Challenge and I thought it would be FUN to do a Water Color Technique on the card and I wanted to use the Solid Frilly Butterfly Pair Stamp and Matching Butterflies Die. I first took some cardstock and added some watercolor spots!! After it was dry I then inked over the entire background using Antiqued Linen Distress Ink and then I stamped the whole Card Base with the Canvas Background Stamp in Kraft Ink one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE STAMPS!! =) I then inked up the Butterfly stamps and stamped them creating the Water Colored Butterflies and I LOVE the way they turned out!! I lined up the matching dies and die cut them!! I then added some pearls for their bodies and added them to my card base!! I added some twine and my card is ready for any occasion needed!!

Great card! I love how you created your watercolor panel and then used twine where it stops! And the butterflies are beautiful in those colors! Great work! Thanks for sharing.
