 hello stampers!

I find myself with some spare time today so thought I'd craft and enter a couple of challenges. This one is for justusgirls colour challenge and I used the sketch from freshlymadesketches this week.

I began by ink blending pumice stone and tumbled glass distress oxide inks. Then I partially embossed SU woodland embossing folder over the blue half. I used Alexandra Renke dies (new to me and so awesome!) for the film strips, honeybee stamps die for the sentiment, memory box mini intricate butterflies die for the tiny butterflies and Tim Holtz brushstroke butterflies for the larger one. The large butterfly was also clear heat embossed on the purple details. Finished it off with a few dew drop gems.

Since this is my first time using the Alexandra Renke dies I'm also linking this to Darnell's fabulous NBUS blog. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!
