In the Garden - Clever Prints

On a piece of 9 x7 inch mixed media card, blend the three distress inks. Spritz your fingers with water and flick over the blended background and leave to dry.

Stamp the three patterned butterflies and the sentiment onto another piece of mixed media card using Versafine Clair nocturne ink. 

Colour them with watercolour pens.

Fussy cut out the butterflies. Trim the sentiment and edge the with black ink.

Return to the background. Using wild honey distress ink and the flower fall stencil add some detail to the background. Then repeat but using mustard see distress ink with the amazeballs stencil.

Using the two worker stamps that match the dies, with the two distress inks, add more depth to the background.

Using versafine clair nocturn stamp the stitched border stamp to add more depth.

Die cut a selection of the dies from the abstract geometry set from black card.

Arrange the die cuts and butterflies on the page, then stick down. Add the sentiment.

Using black ink stamp the silhouette butterfly several times to fill any noticable gaps.
