So
far today all we had was a sprinkle of rain….but that could change over night
because they are predicting 90% chance of a thunderstorm….and more rain
tomorrow….and possible snow showers on Friday! April is definitely giving us
rain showers.
Today’s
card is a little different than the cards I normally make. I usually do lots of
layers but this one is a single layer monochromatic card.
I
was in the mood to do something different and this was the result. I took a
piece of white cardstock and printed the swirls (Dollar store stamp set) and
butterflies and sentiment (HOTP) in Stampin’ Up Rich Razzleberry Ink. Then I
used a sponge and sponged on the same colour, which went on lighter
automatically. Then I used an old toothbrush wet with water and sprayed across
the card. This ink doesn’t pool quite as nicely as Distress Ink but it did
provide some light spots for texture. Then I added a butterfly (Memory Box) out
of some similar coloured cardstock. It was different but I liked it okay.
That’s
all for a cloudy and ‘getting-ready-for-a-thunderstorm’ Wednesday, 2017-04-05.
Cheers
Violet
