Happy July! Wow, over half the year is over already...life is passing by too fast!
I was playing around with my friend's Tim Holtz Distress Markers at craft group last week, showing them how you can apply color to a glass block, spritz it with water and apply it to watercolor paper. I used 3 different colors - Seedless Preserves, Picked Raspberry and Peacock Feathers. It didn't come out exactly as I planned, but I didn't want to throw it away.
I die-cut the Pippi butterfly in Hawaiian Shores cardstock and adhered it on an angle. The sentiment is stamped in black ink and on thin foam tape. I rounded the corners and attached it to a Plum Pudding cardstock card base. It already looked much better, but it was perfect with a few iridescent sequins. Amazing how this went from not so great to a very nice looking card!
