I made this card using the fabulous AALL and Create stamps designed by the wonderful
Tracy Evans - stamp numbers 267 and 304. I also used stencil number 39 and Distress Oxides in the backgrounds. The Butterfly and the large word are stamped again on scraps of white card, embossed with clear powder and coloured with Phill Martin's Watercolour Blending Brush Pens. The colours are really vivid in real life and the pens make watercolouring an absolute breeze! The pen nib is covered with glossy accents and shines beautifully as does the embossing. I used a watercolour pencil to add shading to the background circles and added white paint splatters to the whole card along with purple ink around the edge. I used a lot of Tracy Evan's techniques - she is so inspiring!
