This is another of the digital stamps I made the other day. I had originally planned on printing the butterfly twice so I could layer them and raise the wings on the top butterfly, but I forgot, and only printed it once. My house is tiny, and my printer is very large, so printing for me at home is difficult. It means rearranging things and carrying a very heavy printer, so I decided to do something different from what I had planned.
First I colored the stamp with Copics. Next, I went around a lot of the parts with a metallic gold pen, which gave it sort of a cloisonne look. It was pretty, but it didn't have the dimension I had planned on, so I used Glossy Accents on the butterfly, and he looked really nice, although you can't see it in the photograph.
My DCWV Mariposa stack had a sheet of purple CS with gold foil, and I had never found anything to go with it. The butterfly seemed to work, so I used it with some Gold mirror card and mounted it onto my card. Then I cut out a few different doilies, and decided I like this one by Noor! Designs the best, so I stenciled it with Delicata Golden Glitz, and mounted it, and the butterfly onto the card.
Next, I added roses, rosebuds, foliage, and pearls to the card.
Kathi, this is breathtaking. I love that butterfly. The colors are stunning.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card...It always amazes me the beautiful work you do with your gold pen. You must have a very steady hand.

Actually the whole card is stunning.
The butterfly catches my eye though because, as you know, I LOVE blue. lol
I wish my hand was as steady as yours with such great coloring and outlining.
