TSOT #231 - Bermuda Butterfly

Hello, hello! It's time again for another Try Stampin' - Or Not - On Tuesday challenge and this week the sketch is from yours truly. We also have an added challenge of 'Watercolour'.

So here's my card for this week:


I didn't know if I would actually finish this card as my week was busy, but I'm super pleased with how it turned out.

I started with lightly water colouring my tag in bermuda bay ink. My embossed background was actually a mistake. I wanted the same tone all over, but didn't mix enough embossing paste with my ink, so thus I created an ombre look - and love the look even more! My butterflies were cut from bermuda bay card and vellum and layered together and the sentiment is from Cottage Greetings. Oops! I just realised I left of the strip down the bottom ;)

I love this card for being able to show the versatility and possibilities for stretching your stash and only using 2 colours (and these just happen to be my teams colours :)

Ok so want to play along? Well here is the sketch:


And we look forward to seeing what you come up with :)

Thanks for looking
