Happy Friday, friends! I’m glad you’ve stopped by today! I’m super excited to be sharing my first post as part of the Dies R Us Design Team. I’m super excited to be a part of this amazing Design Team.
For my design this week I die cut a panel from a Bristol smooth paper with the largest die from the Penny Black Antique Frame dies. I placed the Memory Box Calais Butterflies die across the panel and die cut them out partially.
I masked off the butterflies and ink blended Worn Lipstick, Tattered Rose, Squeeze Lemonade, Twisted Citron Distress Oxide inks onto the panel.
I removed the masks and blended the oxide inks onto the butterflies using the same colors to give them a soft ombre look.
To finish my design I added a few water droplets, splatters of ink to match the Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Oxide Inks. The sentiment was stamped with black ink and heat embossed with Clear (EP). I adhered the panel onto an A2 Side Fold Neenah Solar White card base.
Don’t forget to come join in the fun at the Dies R Us Challenge Blog. There’s a new challenge theme offered on the 1st and 15th of each month and one lucky randomly drawn winner will receive a gift voucher prize to the Dies R Us Store. For your convenience, all supplies links are provided below.
Great card and a wonderful way to use your butterfly die cuts. You chose some interesting and fun colors of ink. The splatter ties it all together.
Have a great weekend.
