Butterfly Basics

I am LOVING this Butterfly Basics set.

It is perfect for the layering collage effect.

Out came my recently acquired NBUS

{Never Before Used Stuff}

(see below)

in the form of these big brushes.

They can give an air brushed look,

that's a lot easier than with a brayer.

Here's the card using Bermuda Bay,

 Tempting Turquoise and Rose Red Inks,

then Memento Black for the fern.

After masking, brushing, stamping etc!,

I used a fine black pen to make a squiggly line to outline the panel.

A 'squiggly' line means you don't have to worry about doing a straight line!

Don't forget that any inky attempts that don't go quite right,

can be used to stamp on and punch out!

It is also fab for stamping a sentiment on the outside,
and a coordinating one inside,
not forgetting the envelope too!
Phew!

The stamp set is new,
but this is the first time I've used my brushes,
and so will enter Darnell's challenge:

Do pop over and visit her page,
it is VERY funny!
