Flight

This is the card I entered into the CHF Summer Stamp Star Design Challenge for this week, which was using the resist technique. I used several different stamp sets for this card, SEP Vintage Butterflies, Kim Hughes Silhouettes 1 & II, and French Script backgrounder. I seem to be brayer challenged so to get my color and make the emboss pop I sponged my ink on. The popped up butterfly is also made using the resist technique and is a really pretty way to make kind of a shiny embellishment, will have to remember that! To finish it off I stitched, added some lace and a pretty bling butterfly trail. I hope you like it:) Thanks for stopping by and telling me what you think. Have a wonderful day!
