Blue Chintz Butterfly

Published by trudee at 11:36 am under Card Designs, Copic, Lockhart Stamp Co, Spellbinders

Hello there!

I am rushing to start work today, but wanted to post some inspiration for you.

This design features Karen Lockhart’s chintz butterfly, as well as 3 CHF backgrounders. The image was colored with my Copic markers, then cut, embossed, airbrushed, and matted with my Spellbinders circle Nesties. All of these items are available in Ellen’s store!

Prism cardstock, and Adirondack inks (from CHF) were used, as well as some Creative Impressions ribbon (from my LSS). A bit of Stickles on the butterfly make her sparkle.

Supplies:

Paper: Prism nautical blue med, sunflowers med, intense kiwi, cryogen white. Ink: Adirondack denim, butterscotch, lettuce, pitch black. Copics: B23, Y21, 38, YG03, E27. Backgrounders: paisley, spanish script, leaves.

Have a great day!!
