Spring - 2


 Hello all

Today's card uses a stamp from Paper Artsy, HP1301EZ
First of all I made a blended background using DI's dried marigold, mustard seed, and fossilised amber.
I then stamped using my Misti and Versafine onyx black
I stamped again on a scrap and cut out the butterfly and coloured with markers, adhered to the card and also lightly coloured the flowers at the top left.I tore off the edges and the attached to a toning card base
I love these spring-like colours

The blended background creates such a warm spring glow, and the trio of marigold, mustard, and amber inks gives the whole panel a soft radiance that suits this Paper Artsy image beautifully. The crisp black stamping adds great contrast, and the extra butterfly layer brings a lovely bit of movement, especially with the gentle marker coloring that ties into the lightly tinted flowers in the corner. The torn edges add texture without overwhelming the design, and the coordinating card base frames everything with a clean, finished look.
