Good Wednesday morning. I have a project to share with you today here on my blog as well as a step by step tutorial in the CLASSroom using the Impression Obsession Ornate Square Frame and the Bouquet set. The Ellen Hutson design team is featuring Impression Obsession products all this week as well as having a 15% off sale on all in-stock Impression Obsession products.
I had fun coloring the Impression Obsession Butterfly Block using Memento Markers and a waterbrush. I applied clear Wink of Stella over all the images to add some shine but it doesn’t really show well in the pictures.
I cut the Butterfly Block out of hot press watercolor paper, misted well with water using my mini mister and began coloring with markers and a waterbrush. I wanted the colors to be bright so they would pop against the all white frame and card base. I heat set and then applied the clear Wink of Stella over all the images. I applied double stick tape to the back of the frame and attached the block die cut to the back and trimmed off the top and bottom portion to fit in my square frame.
I applied mounting tape around the back of the frame and in a few key pieces of the die cut so everything would stand away from the card base. I hate to admit how crooked I got the frame attached to the card base. I didn’t notice it until I dropped down here to add my last couple lines of description. LOL!
I would like to invite you to join me in the CLASSroom for my Framed Bouquet project and step by step tutorial.
Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great day.
Love the bright shades and framing on the butterfly card – very nice!
