It's finally Friday. What a week! Today I came across a new technique for the gelli plate that I couldn't wait to try. We also have a new QFTD, it is Stamp Muse, or Miss M as I call Emily. I chose to case her card that she cased from JD from Pausa. SO technically it is a double case. hehe
This is also for the F4A170 to repeat something. My butterflies are the repeat part.
This is also for the MIX17, to use two different mediums on your card. I think I got that covered here.....now on to my card....
My bg is a scrap piece of paper that I used to clean off my brayer. I ran it through the cb with an eb folder.
My butterflies were cut from a gelli print using a butterfly die cut. On one of them I added a glass bead medium.
The side strip is from the new technique I learned today. It involves packing tap, gelli printing and aluminum foil.
Put all this on a cream colored card that I ran an ink pad on the edges to distress it a little.
Well, had a fun time with this one let me tell you. Miss M, enjoy your reign as the new Queen. And thank you ladies for the wonderful challenges today. Have a great weekend ALL!.....TFL :0)

Love these bright, bright contrasting colors! Very artsy! Great idea to use your brayer scrap paper. Looks like you did some nice doodling on the butterflies too. Your side panel turned out cool. Isn't it fun to learn a new technique?!
