Butterflies



Over at the PaperPlay forum, Hazel has chosen the theme of butterflies for our June Atc swap.  Having seeing T!m's fab tag for June I decided to adapt his technique with the distress pens and water brush by colouring the butterflies and backgrounds.  

The PaperBag image on the orange one is stamped onto acetate and sandwiched between two atc's with a window cut out the top one.  It looked a bit plain so I did a bit of doodling with the black pen!!

My mate, Kate has just started a new challenge blog over at The Hobby House and the first theme is anything goes.  So I would like to support her by entering my atc's.

Love these, Sam! And though they're butterflies - it's clear you're the busy bee this weekend!! My favourite is the one you've kindly given us in close-up - beautiful colours in that background. Will check out the Hobby House - thanks for the tip...
