Hello!
I created this card for Lydia's fun MIX9 "Construction Zone" Mix-Ability challenge.
I painted one corner of the card with gesso and acrylic paint, then cut a piece of Basi Grey's Knee Highs paper, tore a corner and pasted to the card. I then used inks and spritzes. I stamped the butterfly (which is my stamp illustration for Inky Antics) in Perfect medium, added silver metallic embossing powder then heat set. I repeated the process around the edges and again on a piece of acetate.
I cut the butterfly from the acetate, glittered the other butterfly with Art Glitter, then adhered the acetate butterfly over the other one. The final touch was doodling around the edges and butterfly, then added a hand drawn sentiment.
I sure hope you will play along with this fun challenge!
Thanks for looking!
Hugs,
True

Love, love the butterfly and your BG. I think the touch that really brings this piece to life is your doodles all around! They are just so perfect here! Fantastic!
