Butterfly Thank You

Today, I’m sharing a card created with some Penny Black stamps and die cuts in which I’ve paired feminine (the delicate floral) and masculine (the woodgrain) motifs.

I started by inking the  Penny Black Star Ivy [#40-310]  background with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I misted the stamp until the ink started to pool, at which point I pressed watercolor paper onto the stamp. As I let that dry, I applied Worn Lipstick Distress Ink directly to watercolor paper from which I die cut the  butterflies using the Penny Black Flutters [#51-006] set. (I also die cut the butterflies from blank watercolor paper, as I wanted the die cuts to have some depth.) I stamped the woodgrain using the Inspiring [#40-113] stamp set with Versamark for a tone-on-tone look. The sentiment is from Penny Black’s Special Wishes [#30-229].
