Photo Details
Poster: lacyquilter

 Here's my card for technique challenge #246. I used a mini mister with water & turquoise ink refill to spritz my paper towel. After waiting forever for it to dry, I finally used my heat gun to finish the drying. Although I also used some glimmer mist, there is no evidence of any shimmer. I die cut the paper towel with the 3 smallest dies of blossoms II (Spellbinders). I think I must have used about 6 layers for each die, but the paper towel layers separated, so there are really twice that many layers. I crumbled them all up, then straightened them out somewhat, stacked them all and pierced a hole in the center and attached a brad to hold them together. I sponged a bit more ink on the completed flower.

The butterflies were punched from glossy paper sponged with turquoise ink.
