Watercolor Trio CCMC4
It’s another Saturday and another Create with Connie and Mary Staurday Challenge. This week Connie did a sketch challenge for us to do. Oh…what fun! I will admit, it threw me a bit with the circles on the sides but I figured it out!

Lately I’ve been in a bit of a ‘white’ phase…I’m really liking the nice clean look of white with just a little color added in. This goes right along with that feel. The base of the card is whisper white. I took another piece of whisper white and ran it through the finial press, layered onto pretty in pink and than the card front. Then I took another piece of whisper white and stamped the butterfly image using pretty in pink. Next was a strip of sahara sand that I also ran through the finial press added to the white and then tied a piece of pretty in pink 5/8” satin ribbon around it.
This is layered onto a piece of pretty in pink and a sahara sand scallop was added along the left edge. This is added to the card front using dimentionals. I used a 1 3/4” whisper white circle layered onto a scallop circle from the pennant die. I inked the image using my pretty in pink and sahara sand markers, cut it out and layered it onto the circle. I then stamped and cut out a BUNCH of butterflies and added to the card.
