Butterfly Pressed

I added stencil butter to the deboss side of this ef then embossed the white text vellum paper. Added green swipes direct to paper with ink pad, smeared blue ink pad on glass mat, spritzed with water then picked up smooching style. Trimmed to fit mini slimline and mounted on fun foam that is on white cs base. Added Silhouette cut sentiment in white.

Can You Handle the Pressure: Butterflies

Pink & Gold

Saw a similar layout and wanted to use my freshly cut snowflakes to give a try. All snowflakes were Silhouette cut in white cs. Base on was left as is, Next up was smeared with gold stencil butter and tiny one is pink stencil butter. One dry they were stacked together with glue and sparkle rounds added. The bg piece was masked with stencil and the gold stencil butter applied. Once dry I partially dry embossed with snowflake ef. Used the pink stencil butter, watered it down to color the sentiment dies with a paint brush. Was not my intention to have ombre but that is how the water mixed and dried. Probably could not do it again if I tried. Mounted the piece on white cs base.

Stencil In Pink

I was working on a cut out for my Halloween cards and this image was part of the pieces. I cut this larger size out of cs on the Silhouette and used it as a stencil with hot pink stencil butter. I also used the image to cut a smaller version to add black gesso through paper stencil on the envelope. Frame with squares was also created and printed from Silhouette. After trimming and backing the pieces with cs all was mounted on white cs base. The pink butter has a wonderful shimmer that does not photograph at all.

Over the top CAS

There is clean and simple then there is this. I really wanted you guys to see the white gold watercolor. The embossing folder was in the same order of goodies as the golds and my new masculine embossing folders. So the sentiment was cut on the Silhouette in white layering weight cs and water colored then glued on to the white dry embossed layer. Mounted that on Wild Lilac cs and added punched dragonfly in Lovely Lavender with glossy accents.

Layered Stencils

Started with lines and diamonds stencil sponged with Soft Stone on white copy paper. Left that taped down and layered leaves and berries that got sponged in Jelly Bean Green. Then stamped focal and sentiment in black. Colored wings with mica watercolors in two shades of green. Layered behind die cut frame with Jelly Bean Green cs pop-dots on top of Soft Stone cs.
