Hi everyone, today’s card is a fairly CAS one for me, but one where I’m very pleased with how it turned out using the fabulous Visible Image “Butterfly Ink” stencil which I think really pops! I felt motivated to use it to create a rainbow effect butterfly as I had spotted a couple of rainbow-themed challenges, and I felt that using these bright happy colours would put me in an upbeat mood which indeed it did!
I cut a square of stamping card, and sponged Distress Oxide inks through the stencil to form a rainbow effect. I then stamped the central butterfly, masked it, and stamped my grungy numbers. I then stamped the butterfly again onto separate card, coloured with black Promarker and Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen, then attached to the image. I finished by stamping a sentiment, edging the card with black marker pen, and matting simply onto a black border and my base card.
Stamps: Visible Image VI Minis #1, Where Flowers Bloom; sentiment - Crafter’s Companion Sending Positive Thoughts;
Media: Tim Holtz Distress Oxide inks (Barn Door, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, Salty Ocean, Villainous Potion, Wilted Violet); Promarker (black); Spectrum Noir sparkle pen (clear);
Tools: Visible Image stencil - Butterfly Ink.

Oh, my you aren't kidding about how beautifully this worked out! A fabulous stencil and even more so in the rainbow colors. The stencil and the center stamping are a perfect pair. Thank you so much for sharing with us at Double D!
Absolutely delightful design. No wonder the lovely rainbow colours cheered you up. Xxx
WOW absolutely stunning Pauline, I love your card with the beautiful butterfly stencil, the rainbow colours are wonderful.
The rainbow butterfly looks stunning, I'm tempted by this stencil every time I've seen you use it. The black stamped butterfly makes a lovely contrast.
Thanks for sharing at Stamping Sensations and Try it on Tuesday.
