Good morning, all you lovely people😊
Today, we have a new challenge from Try it on Tuesday!
The challenge for the next two weeks will be
Things with Wings
We'd like to see all your birds, butterflies, other insects, fairies, angels,
any strange creatures with wings...
As usual, you may interpret this in any way you like, using any medium,
in your own, unique, way
Don't forget to check out the super inspirational artwork the TIOT team have created
This card began as a gelli print, which I played around with for a little while, adding bits of text and dripping lots of Neocolors onto it here and there, until I got the colours I was looking for. I then stamped the main images over it in Versafine Onyx Black, embossing with clear powder.
The butterflies were stamped again on plain paper, fussy cut, coloured with Prisma pencils and Posca pens, then attached to the card. A bit of white gel pen highlighting and the word 'Fly' were added to complete it. Mounting it onto white card highlighted the bits of white ink.
Here's a closeup of some of the detail on one of the flutterbies…
I can't wait to see what you make and am looking forward to visiting your blogs 😉
Have fun creating!

Gorgeous card Cath. Your background is amazing and the butterflies do also. I think we are all having some butterfly love lately. It is that time, isn't it? Still grey and cool here, we need some more sunshine and warm skies. Maybe soon. Hope you have some beautiful weather and are having a great day. Hugs-Erika
