butterfly wishes


Hi There!

Thanks for popping in to have a look at my latest card.

This is a really simple one. I think you will agree it is really effective though.
A big thank you goes to Debra James for showing us this spotlight technique in  our fortnightly class.


I have coloured the background in a warm grey Copic marker and then mopped it back with a course weave fabric and rubbing alcohol.
Once this is done I have then cut circles in the card cutting into the image.

This pieces of are then feature coloured also with Copic Markers. when mounting up the layers of the card you simply replace the now coloured circles back into position.



supplies used:
butterfly stamp: indigo Blu Big butterfly
Dies: Lawn Fawn large stitched circles
MFT blueprints 21( ask Bec for an extra special order) for the base card with pierced edges.
poppy stamps Vintage Happy Birthday

Don't forget to drop in to Bizzy Becs to get these wonderful supplies and much more. please 
remember that you will need to pre-order these supplies.

see you next time

mouse and flower


Hi there everyone. I'm so sorry this post took a few days to hit my blog.....
It's been really crazy here.

I hope you all had a great Fathers Day with your loved ones.


I am sharing with you a sweet little mouse stamp that I have coloured in with Copic markers.






T create this look I have sponged the background with distress inks and layered the tangle wood frame die cut over the top.

I am really pleased how this turned out. I hope you like it too.
