I used the same Craft Stash TEXT(tures) Butterfly Definition by Lou Collins stamp set again.  I love that both the butterflies and the dictionary definition are one stamp.  This time I used more watered down watercolours on the butterflies so that the look is completely different to the coloured image at the beginning of the month.


I stamped the Butterfly stamp using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink onto watercolour card.  I watercoloured the image then left to dry.   


I die cut Crafters Companion Mixed Media In a Spin die, Creative Expressions Happy Birthday die and Tonic Studios mini butterfly die from Sizzix Textured card.  I used my Tim Holtz Distress tool to distress all four edges of my stamped panel then edged with Bard Door Distress ink which I sprayed with water to soften the ink to watercolour blending.


I used a snippet of designer paper to cover a DL card.  I adhered the In a Spin die cuts and I attached a piece of white lace.   I added the stamped panel with foam pads and glued the mini butterfly in position.  I attached the sentiment below the stamped panel then added the Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops to finish.   Back soon x
