| The solid purple is the back of the butterfly image which folds down for the easel display. |
I tried new techniques on this card and I see I need a LOT of practice - but there is no time right now - in fact I will complete this post later. I used some new powdered chalk, courtesy of Stamp'n Plus. I mixed some powdered chalk with a bit of water and brushed through a stencil for the butterfly. Even though I used water color paper, it still wrinkled a bit. I brushed chalk mixed with a bit of water on the stamp to do the sentiment. Then I tried to follow the tutorial for the twisted easel card, but I am kind of direction-impaired! since the camera is not available, I posted different views. The embossed portion is the inside of the card - which lays flat for the easel display. The floral and light purple dp is a recent Paper Wishes purchase.
