There are quite a few collective nouns for butterflies - rabble or swarm for instance - but I quite like a flutter of them! So here is a flutterly few, using previously created elements.
Dobbed and mixed some Pebeo Prisme onto acetate, let dry, then die-cut. It is quite difficult to die-cut cleanly through the thick paint and acetate using a thin metal die.
Created a couple of cards with more Pebeo butterflies - this one uses 2 Moon paints swirled together; unlike Prisme, the paint doesn't move any further from where it is placed.
This butterfly is using black Moon paint with turquoise Prisme dropped in. The background is 9 squares created by stamping and embossing onto patterned paper, cutting into 9 squares, and reassembling them out of sequence.
Lastly, this card uses the background recently created using a white wax crayon as a resist (see posting of 11 April ). Die-cut 2 white butterflies, and embellished them and the background with pearl dimensional paint.
Hope our summer is all aflutter with them!
