Butterflies galore!

 

Hi There! Thought I would do a journal spread in my black journal for a change, especially with a few new things to play with. Here is how I did it.

I began by drawing around the 6" and 4" butterfly inkable easy frames on the black journal page in white gelly roll pen and on the catalyst paper in black. I cut out the butterfly shapes from the catalyst paper and tore a piece to add to the left hand page.  

I stuck these to the page using matte medium. 

I added a few spots of coordinating shimmer paint with my finger. 

Once this was dry, I used white ink to stamp some of the Journaling Essentials sets 2 and 3 around the page.

I then added a few spots of London Blue shimmer paint in the spaces and set the page aside to dry.

On a scrap of card, I used the shimmer paints to add some colour. I let this dry then heat embossed the Doodle Art butterfly in black.

I cut this out then added it to the page using Distress Collage medium.

Finally I added some faux stitching and accents with Gelly Roll moonlight pens.

Here is the page again. I still can't decide whether to put a sentiment on it, lol. Might add one of the new ones that are out on Monday.

I used:

Mini Black Journal

Catalyst Papers 1 

Inkables Easy Frames 4" and 6"

Dylusions shimmer paint in Pure Sunshine and London Blue

Hero Arts Unicorn White ink

Journaling Essentials #2 stamp set

Journaling Essentials #3 stamp set

Gelly Roll Moonlight Pens

Black versafine clair ink

Ranger black fine detail embossing powder

On Monday at 4pm Bev and Sam are on Hobby Maker with 4 sets of gorgeous new stamps! Hope you can tune in... Here is a sneaky peek! 

They really are stunners! 

Thanks for looking!
