Spread Your Wings and Fly

It's Photo Week at Just Us Girls and Hosting is

Vicki choosing -

I'm afraid I didn't have a teapot in my collection so

went away from that and choosing the teapot colours

as my background. I found 2 matching coloured scrapbook papers

and cut them out with  a Spellbinder Square die

corner rounding 2 sides of each square.

These were popped onto white card stock that has been

cut with a stitched die.

Now the fun part - my butterfly

I got out various coloured distress inks similar to the

photographed butterfly and smooched them onto

card stock then cut the butterfly from a Kaisercraft die.

This was then heat embossed with clear powder

giving my butterfly a lovely shine.

The sentiment is from Gina K and

finished off with a few pearls.

It's 'TREND WEEK' at Just Us Girls

Bobby is Hosting this weeks Trend Challenge at

Just Us Girls and chose

'All Over Stamping'

 

 

Now I had the stamp set I used here in line for another challenge

but realized it was 'perfect' for this one instead.

It is SU - Timeless Textures and this is another stamp set

that has so many ways you can use it.

I got out a bunch of Tim Holtz Distress Inks

and just started inking and stamping randomly and as you can see

it lands up an 'all over stamping' background

for my butterfly which is by the way

a left over from a few I made last year.

How perfect was that? The only thing I had

to add to my background was some Inka Gold

as I had added it to my butterfly.

I cut my background with a stitched die

and framed it then added to my card base.

I die cut my 'Happy' from Impression Obsession

attached it to the butterfly and

stamped the Birthday (from Pink & Maine)

Finished with a gem.
