The nice weather we were having made me think Spring. So out came Stampin' Ups' Elegant and Bitty butterfly punches. I saw a very similar card on Pinterest and there was a video showing how it was made. I wet down a piece of Shimmery White cardstock and then using a paint brush dipped in paints, dotted the colors on the wet Shimmery White cardstock. I used two shades of pink and an orange from the Simply Art watercolor set I have. And it is the least expensive set of watercolors I own! I moved the cardstock a little to help spread the paints and used my heat tool to dry it. After punching the butterflies, I played with the arrangement on the Shimmery White Layer. Before adhering the larger butterflies, I did stamp antennae. I layered that onto a Pink Pirouette layer before adhering to the white card base. A few pretty pale pink sequins complete the card. I am not happy with the flower that is part of the sentiment, but it's ok. Hope you like today's card as much as I do~~especially as I see the snow covered yard!
