Watercolored Butterfly Beauty

Hello Everyone ~ I am in love with my Watercolored Butterfly Beauty card!

Well I managed to get 1 of My Facebook Live cards completed and the second one started.  I also created the posts and e-mail for my newest Inspiration in the Mail ~ Snowflake Wishes class.  That took a while as I am trying a new way to do the billing.  I am hoping it worked as it was shot in the dark as I could not test it.  I had a guy here for several hours to see if we can trouble shoot an issue I am having.  At this point we still don’t have an answer.  I am hoping we get somewhere since I filed a complaint with the state board.  Cross your fingers for me!

Last night we have another quilt class.  I am ready to begin quilting my top.   Next week I will work on marking my top so I can quilt it.  I may start quilting it there to see if my little machine will work.  If not I will bring it home and use my larger machine with a walking foot.

Today I am going to work on my Facebook Live/Zoom cards.  I would like to get a few of them done.   I also have an appointment to get my car serviced and inspected.  It should not take long and then I will have the afternoon to work on my cards.

My share today uses one of the watercolor panels I created in a Facebook Live a couple of weeks ago.  I shared several different watercolor techniques and created a bunch of panels.  I decided to use one of the panels along with the Butterfly Beauty dies to cut out the butterflies.  I strategically placed the die to get the butterflies I wanted.  Here is my Watercolored Butterfly Beauty creation.

Creating watercolor panels is a great way to have interesting paper to die cut or use as a background. The butterflies were cut with a panel I created by playing around. Check out the details for the Watercolored Butterfly Beauty card.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These cute butterflies were inked up using the colors I used for my watercolor panel I created. I used that panel to create my Watercolored Butterfly Beauty card. Check it out.
