Watercolor Butterfly with Gold Accents Video



April is National Card and Letter Writing Month.   What a perfect month for card creators!  Make a pretty card, write a message and pop it off to celebrate.  While you're at it, why not add gold accents to a watercolor butterfly as a focus of your card?

I've got a video below showing just how easy it is to create watercolor die cuts with gold accents.  



I'm sure you've got someone (or someones) who would be thrilled to get a handmade card from you to celebrate National Card and Letter Writing Month.   Give this technique a try!



Now to announce the winner of the Easter/Spring Challenge:


Thank you to everyone who participated, I loved getting to see all your Easter and Spring creations!

Have a lovely week!

  3. Love this; so clever. Never thought about using the die cut as a stencil. I thought you painted the gold w/ a brush. Also thought the watercolor as a backdrop for the die cut with the cut outs was quite pretty too. Thanks for the neat idea.
