BUTTERFLY GARDEN

Here's my card for the current TicTacToe Challenge #252. I designed the board and I went down the left side with foliage, layers and butterfly.

I did some shading around the wreath leaves on the embossed background.  The background of the butterfly was a piece of blue that I found in my scrap box - it was from when I did whole bunch of backgrounds with the bubble watercoloring techinque. The lacy part of the butterfly is a piece of shiny vellum.  Added some clear "dew drops" to the leaves and done.  Will add a sentiment when I need a card for whatever occasion.  All of the dies I used are no longer available - the wreath was from Alexandra Renke and the background was from SSS.  The dewdrops are from Amazon.


Please join us for our challenge - you have until Thursday, 1 August at 12pm to enter.  Crafty hugs.

    Your board and beautiful card inspired me to get an entry made in time! Love seeing the AR wreath--need to use mine again! And I do love that embossing folder which I'm sure I also have! We do like a lot of the same things, don't we? Your butterfly is beautiful!

    So pretty Betty - I absolutely love the dew drops on the leaves...it really does look like dew. I've never heard of the bubble watercoloring technique....will google!
