Butterfly Beauty Dies

Hi everyone,

I was reminded recently of this technique using ink refills and Water Painters (#512298).






Using a variety of ink refills and a Water Painter, I randomly coloured a piece of the Shimmery White card (#121717) as shown above. (This photo is another piece I coloured as I didn’t photograph the piece before I cut it). Shimmery White card is perfect for watercolouring, so great for this technique. You can get more subtle colours by using more water when colouring. You can allow this to air dry or use the Heat Tool (#129056) for a quicker result. Once dried I cut the coloured card using the Butterfly Beauty base Die (#151819). Then the Brass Foil Sheet (#153057) was cut with the “outline” die from the same set. I had used the Adhesive Sheets (#152334) on the back of the foil sheets before cutting, which makes it so easy to adhere this more detailed die-cut piece. The Whisper White card front (#106549) was embossed with the Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder (#153200). The butterflies were attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The sentiment is from the Blossoms In Bloom stamp set (#p152684) and stamped with Highland Heather ink (#147103). The die to cut the sentiment is one of the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#152323). This was attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The beautiful Gilded Gems (#152478) were added to finish the card.


Enjoy your day & keep crafting!!
