BUTTERFLY WISHES

It's a colorful world we live in and I like being able to share that through art.  My current Close To My Heart project was super fun to make because I could repeat with east.  For any of the products I have used make sure and click here to be taken to Heather Flaherty's website to place your order.  

I love the using pigment ink because the color is so rich.  For this project I used Sorbet, Sweet Leaf, Canary and Juniper

The sentiments which I stamped on Vellum are from You're the Bomb Operation Smile stamp set  

Using the Artbooking Cartridge I cut out an overlay at 3 inches from page 62.  The overlay's make a great disposable stencil.  The butterfly was cut at 2 inches.  I inked the butterfly with the coordinating color ink and cut a second butterfly from vellum

You can use the paper stencils just as you would any other stencil and if you use a thick enough paper you can use it multiple times before tossing it.  The Artbooking Cartridge has tons of great patterns

Once the Modeling Paste was dry I used a sponge to ink on the the color, added some twine, a gem and instant 4 cards are all done.  Super easy and fun to make a card set with a simple pattern.

Make sure you visit Heather's blog and I will see you next week for yet another project share
