For the colour challenge this week I picked Maura's chart from CC566 with Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, Pumpkin Pie and a Green of choice. I used my Misti Mini to prepare my stamp. I coloured first with the Orange on the lines of the butterfly and spritzed with water and stamped. I cleaned my stamp and coloured the circle areas in the pink and spritzed with water and stamped. When I was done with the stamping I coloured my Zigs on my craft mat and picked up the colours and applied. The lighter spots at the top of the butterfly have a light pink wash, then following the wash some of the places have the light pink followed by the deeper pink. After it was dry I coloured Wink of Stella on all the lighter areas of the butterfly which does not show in the picture but IRL it is really pretty. I did a wash around the butterfly, and stamped my sentiment, and finished with a few sequins. Thanks for looking today.

This is gorgeous! I love this beautiful butterfly that looks like it is ready to fly right off the page! The water coloring around the butterfly really sets it off, and you chose the perfect sentiment to add to this wonderful card! ~Karen.
