STAMPlorations Things with Wings Spring Blog Hop & Linky Party

Good afternoon all.

STAMPlorations are hosting a Things with Wings Spring Blog Hop and Linky Party and you have the rest of the month to join in with us. Time to dust off all those butterflies, dragonflies and birds...or anything else with wings and link up your projects.

I have an A4 canvas board to share today. After priming the board with gesso I used gelatos to colour the background, then positioned the mask and used crackle paste over the top blending it smoothly into the board. Once dry I added a little colour to the crackle paste and lots more colour to the background. Various stencils were used with texture paste (sunshine), Radiant Gel (butterflies) and black lava texture gel (birds). I discovered one of my nesting circles dies was an exact match for the sunshine stencil so added the photos of my kids. Finally added the butterfly die cut...love how the intricate die cuts beautifully without needing shims etc (using an SP Platinum).

Stencils used: Clouds, Some Birds, Flutterby

Mask: My Sunshine

Stamps: Butterfly Row

Dies: Hello Sunshine, Flutter Zen 2 Layering dies

Eldest son Gary at about 18 months on his first bike, younger son Mark at about 18 months.

Daughter Lora about a year old...and the beautiful butterfly.
