This weeks Spellbloggers post uses one of my favourite Spelly's die, the Donna Salazar Cascading Butterflies :D These were some left over die cuts from the previous times I'd used it, I like to keep them in a separate little box, and the outlines were ones I had added some double sided adhesive to before die-cutting :D For the background of this card I was messing about mixing Distress Oxide and Distress Ink together to do the wrinkle free technique, this wrinkle free method doesn't work quite so well when using a glass cutting mat, as the ink doesn't bead up on the surface, it stays in a puddle, but I quite like the overall look :D And I have figured out how to get the droplets now lol :D (I think that's in a video coming up soon :D). To add a bit of interest to the white butterflies, and to add some shimmer to the background, I watered down some Nuvo mousse, and used a natural sponge to apply it, I really love this look, I've used this in my Art Journal before (I think it was in my Photography layout) :D Hope you liked today's card :D
