The stamp is by crafty Individuals and I only stamped it initially to see how it stamped. From that innocent action came this card.
This will be entered into Addicted to Stamps & More #391 Anything Goes Challenge
What I used
A6 White Card Base
White Card for Stamping
Butterfly Stamp from Crafty Individuals
Blending Tool
Distress Ink in Gathered Twigs, Brushed Corduroy, Bundled Sage and Antique Linen
Large Luggage Tag Nesting Die
Twine
Washi or Masking Tape
Foam Squares
Sentiment Stamp
Instructions
Stamp the butterfly on a piece of white card in Gathered Twigs. Distress the card with Brushed corduroy and a blending tool
On the white card base, mask areas in straight strips for your chosen background design
Using Bundled Sage and Antique Linen I blended strips, alternating colours. This was then spritzer with water and dried with a heat tool. The entire card base was then blended over to create a distressed look with brushed corduroy, spritzer and dried. Gathered twig ink was used to stamp the sentiment in the top left corner.
The butterfly image was cut out using a luggage tag nesting die and threaded with twine.
This was then attached to the card base using foam squares.

This is fab, and also great to use things that we forget about or don't often use. Great idea. xx
