It's the third day of previews for the Mark's Finest Papers December release. Oh boy! I had fun with this new set called Butterfly Essence. I embossed the background image in black on watercolor paper and then I went to painting! Now, I'm not a water coloring pro, but this was really fun. I just kept adding color until I was satisfied! After that I die cut my circle panel and began to structure my card. I selectively inked a portion of the sentiment and attached it below my ribbon.
It was really nice to color and think about butterflies as our weather here has taken a dip. Our temperatures are in the 20's and 30's. I have taken out my long underwear to survive my recess duty at school. The children continue to come outside without their coats and tell me that they are not cold. I promptly send them back inside to get their coats and remind them I am certain that their parents would want them to have a coat on!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
