Purple Butterflies...

This a simple card that uses an interesting resist technique. I started with a solid butterfly image from Impression Obsession. I inked the stamp with clear embossing ink and randomly stamped it on a piece of printed paper. Cover with clear embossing powder, shake off the excess and heat emboss. Then I took Dusty Concord Distress ink from Ranger and using a foam applicator, applied the ink over the piece. The embossed images will resist the ink. Take a tissue or paper towel and rub to remove any stray ink off the embossed designs. The words are from Flourishes and I went around the edges of the oval with the Dusty Concord ink, as well. Add some ribbon and layers and you have a great card.


Thanks for making us part of your day today!
