Butterfly Smooch

If you've paged through the current Summer Mini catalogue, you may have come across our new "Smooch Spritz" paints. These pearlized accent sprays add a splash of colour to projects and come in a ready-to-use glass spray applicator. They're even acid free, so they're safe for your scrapbooks! They're available in 4 different colors: Gold Glow, Silver Foil, Vanilla Shimmer & Log Cabin.

I used the Vanilla Shimmer on one of the projects I did with my Stampers 6 Club girls last night. It adds a gorgeous pearly shimmer which catches the light perfectly.




So pretty!  To create the background on the card, we sponged ink over the Mostly Vintage stencil which is also in our current Summer Mini.

For the aged-look on the butterfly (the butterfly was cut with our Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die), we stamped our outline image in Chocolate Chip classic ink, coloured it in with our Stampin' Write markers and then gave it a spritz of water.  The water makes the water based ink start to bleed and feather and soften/age the image as it dries.  So pretty!

Happy Stamping!
