Thinking of You

Congratulations to this week's Featured Stamper, Linda (71st Street).

I chose this card as my inspiration:



I focused on Linda's:
-colours (aqua and purple)
-circle/wreath/doily
-butterflies

I changed:
-emphasis on aqua to purple
-added black

I started by blending Flirty Fuschia and Aquatini inks through a stencil created with the i-crafter Doily die. I love the 'magic' that happens when you mix these two colours - isn't that blue gorgeous?

I trimmed the panel with an Essentials by Ellen Essential Circle die and used a strip from the Rainbow Slider die set for my i-crafter Scattered Thoughts sentiment.

I used the butterfly dies from the i-crafter Love Bugs set to create my butterfly, with a black base so it would be more visible on the busy background.

I cut a slightly larger black circle and used it as an offset mat to balance the black on the butterfly and add a modern feel.
