It's the 21st of the month which means......... It's the IndigoBlu Challenge and this months theme is ....
"Pick Your Most Favourite Stamp Of The Year"
Now how do I do that????? How do you pick one stamp out of all those scrummy choices. Well I have cheated slightly. Only a little bit, but I've used two. I have picked the Vintage Flourish stamp as my most favourite but I couldn't resist using the Dinkie Butterfly too.
I've chosen to do the "Ombre" effect on this card, it seems to be very big at the moment. I know it has been used in the Craft Stamper magazine lately.
The butterfly I stamped twice onto acetate with Stazon Ink and cut them out. Then I used alcohol inks on the reverse of just one of them. I stuck the bodies together and shaped the wings a little. A touch of liquid pearls on the flourish just gave a finishing touch.
I hope you like this design, I enjoyed making it. Now if you would like to see what the other DT members have designed just pop along to the IndigoBlu Challenge Blog. While your there why not enter the next challenge. Here is a pic of the amazing prize you could win.
