The background was made using Tammy's technique with Tim Holtz Distress Bundled Sage ink. Then I stamped the butterfly with Versafine Onyx Black ink, embossed with clear embossing powder, and colored with Copic markers. I love that new Provocraft/Cuttlebug embossing folder I used for the background. It came in a pack of four. If you'd like to try this technique, check out Tammy's tutorial, post your card on Speedy TV and maybe win a free stamp set!

Bundled sage........hmmmm, guess I have to take a look at that ink! I love the colors you chose for the butterfly and papers, and the distressed bg is fab!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card Lois. I hope to get to know you better while on the DT.
ReplyDeleteYou do beautiful work on your cards!
Gorgeous butterfly, it turned out so pretty on the sage color! Love your layout, the embossed BG & lacy frame really make it POP!
ReplyDeleteLois,
ReplyDeleteWow, beautiful card and I love the color of ink used for the technique - very pretty!
Beautiful card Lois! I love the distressed background so pretty with the butterfly ;)
ReplyDeleteLike all things Butterfly including your card. Tried the technique. Tried a couple Tim Holtz colors for background (Wild Honey & Broken China) each on different paper not together. Used Tiger stamp from Big Cats and my coloring with Prisma Color markers that my daughter gave me made the Tiger look too dark/scary. I know Tigers are wild but they are bee-utiful looking unlike my colored image. I'm thinking I may need an image with less detail or lighter color coloring. I have Oopsy Daisy and am going to give it a try.
