Flutterbys and Blooms

Hello!  Today I have a card that I created with the new July Crafty Crew Kit by Crafty Stamp Co.  This is such a sweet little set of "flutterbys" and flowers.  While this kit has some really great patterned paper, I decided to use the included stencil to ink blend my own background.

A new thing in the kit is a Crafty Color Recipe, which lists suggested Copic Marker combinations.  I really like this idea because it is not only helpful for the newer maker, but there are times that I just want to color and I can just follow the color blends.

For the background, I used the Daisy Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks to ink two different pieces of white cardstock.  I then used an oval die to cut an opening so I could swap out the different colors.

The Copic Markers used are:

• E50, E51, E53, R20 - butterfly body
• BG11, BG13, BG15 - aqua wings
• RV00, RV10, RV13 - pink wings
• BV00, BV02 - lavender wings
• Y11, Y15 - yellow wings
• YG17, G21 - stems and leaves
• * the same color combinations were used for the flowers

I have a process video up on my YouTube channel if you would like follow along.  I have the link down below.

This colorful card would be perfect for a number of different occasions.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day!
