Let's get started !!
Continuing with my theme of ink backgrounds, today my background technique is Ombre. The Mirriam-Webster dictionary describes Ombre as having colors or tones that shade into each other — used especially of fabrics in which the color is graduated from light to dark. I achieved this effect by sponging three shades of blue on the area between two masks. 
The MFP Stamp Shop sets I used for this card were Garden Art, Hello Butterflies, and Hydrangea.
Here's the Design Team:
Enjoy the Hop. Come back each day. We hope to inspire you to start your own Butterflies and Bugs projects. Get to work on the tutorials, show us what you made by May 13th and check back on May 14, 2016, to see if you are a winner.
