Hi Friends! Kristina here for my solo post of the month! I’ve created another card to go with out current Celebrate theme – You have a few more days to get your projects linked up! Here’s what I’ve come up with, it i’s Hero Art’s birthday after all…

I fell in love with this butterfly set the moment I saw it. These images are drawl beautifully. While I have lots of colorful plans for them, I wanted to keep the coloring simple.

I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens for all of my watercoloring. I started by coloring my main butterfly, and once dried, I went around the white space fading it in from the edges of the card and the main butterfly.

I glued this panel down to some fun foam for sturdy dimension, and then only an a2 sized card base. To finish I went over all of the black and white butterflies with a shimmer pen. Lastly, heat embossed my sentiment onto pink card stock with white embossing powder and adhered it onto the card with foam tape.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I’ve giving you some inspiration to enter our challenge!
