Butterfly Wishes....

Hi everyone, dropping in today to share my latest creation.

  I have been playing with Tim Holtz Distress Paints, I placed small dots of Kitsch Flamingo and  Carved Pumpkin onto my slip mat and then spritzed  with water.  I then dabbed my watercolour paper onto the paint until I had the desired look.  After drying with my heat tool I added splatters of Salvaged Patina, spritzed lightly and then dried, before stamping on my Butterflies.  Very happy with how my card turned out.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set with Versamark and then applied White Embossing Powder.
