Hi everyone, thank you so much for stopping by!! Today I'm working with the gorgeous 7 Dots Studio Nature Walk Collection that was generously supplied by our guest Nani ke Ola. I'm also using these beautiful Paper Wings Productions stamp sets: Writing Backgrounds, Vintage Lace, Fringe Lace, Sunburst Pattern, Hanging Stars and Perfect Alphabet.
I'm using a 12x12 black matte board for my background. I wanted to make sure I had a strong background for my wet mediums. The beautiful weathered wood 7 Dots Studio paper is called Musical Blooms. I trimmed it down to 10.5" to allow the a black border to show. Next I added texture using a Heidi Swap stencil and mask set with molding paste.
Once the molding paste began to set, I imprinted the butterfly with the Writing Backgrounds Script stamp.
After that I spritz the butterfly with black Tattered Angels spray ink and outlined it with a white Signo pen. Later on I decided that the white edges need to be toned down so I went over them with a grey marker.
Using the butterfly mask included in the Heidi Swapp stencil set, I began creating a stamped layer. This is the Vintage Lace stamp.
I added more white paint splatters to balance out the splatters printed on the 7 Dots patterned paper.
Layering time! I layered a doily from my stash, Nature Walk tags and stickers. I also added a tag that I created using the Fringe Lace and Sunburst Pattern stamps.
My focal image is from the Vintage Cuties Clip Art Sheet.
I created my sentiment using both the Perfect Alphabet and Hanging Stars stamp set.
Finally to soften things up a bit I added beautiful ribbon and trim.
***Here is the complete line up just in case you get lost along the way***
