WT 121 Butterfly Dry Embossed

Photo Details

Poster: Granna

I wanted to do a dry embossed butterfly. It doesn't show in the scan, but it's very puffy IRL. I colored the butterfly, then dry embossed it from the back, using a stylus with the piercing mat from the tool kit under the paper, so it would puff up. I like the way the watercoloring turned out, and coloring the cuttlebug bg.

I wish I could see this IRL. I bet it looks so pretty with the butterfly puffed up! Great job coloring the CB BG and the ribbon matches perfectly!

Very pretty. I love this stamp. I've used it with the baby wipe technique and it looks good that way, too - nice to mix colors together.

I love the card. How did you color the cuddlebug embossed panel? I have been wanting to do that for another card and it did not turn out anywhere near this good!!
