I’m loving the Betterpress system from Spellbinders. I recently bought the Butterfly Bouquet plate. I love this plate!
I used black ink to “press” the image into the paper. I knew I wanted to color the image but wasn’t sure what medium I was going to use.
I used the paper that comes with the Betterpress start up kit. The paper is a little thicker than the paper I use for my Copics.
I decided to use my Polychromo pencils. I wanted to have very light coloring so I added my color to the edges and then used gamsol to spread the ink around.
My sentiment is from Spellbinders, A Little Message Sentiments. It also has matching dies so you can cut the sentiment out.
I used Mulberry ink for my sentiment. For the butterfly, I added some sparkle using Sky Blue and Baby Blue AtYou Spica pens.
I cut image down and then added some Eggplant card stock from Gina K before adding it to a Wild Wisteria (also Gina K) card base.
To finish my card, I added some Nuvo Crystal Drops, but I forgot to write down which color I used.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Crafting!
