So before the That's Crafty challenge closes here's my "Things with wings". They are butterflies of course, since they are a favourite of mine, as I find them easy to use on cards. Men, woman and children, everyone loves butterflies!.
I first stamped my butterflies (from an old Docrafts set) with Distress inks sprayed with water and over stamped in black Versafine but slightly offset. The concept was to show an after image of the butterflies as they are flying across my page. The Distress inks I chose were a bit too pale to show well though...
I used watercolour pencils and a brush to colour them and splattered some watercolour as well for a "trail".
Keeping it simple and almost clean I just added a sentiment stamped on a die-cut and framed with 2 pieces of "waste" die-cut.
Thanks for coming by,
