How To Create A Stunning Butterfly Card Using Brushos

Hi all

I have a nature themed card to share today. I created a project that had a lot of texture and i experimented with different green tones.


I started by painting the whole card with Lime Green Brusho Powder and then i added a few darker greens over the top. Next i added gesso to the centre and added Leaf Green over the top before adding a stencil down the middle and then Olive and Emerald Green on top.


i dyed the cheese cloth with Lime and Leaf Green and dried it off with a heat tool before gluing it to the card. The butterfly i printed off and coloured by spritzing with water first and then sprinkling differnent colours over the top. I guided the colout with a water pen and dabbed off any excess ink.


I finished off the card by adding a texture stamp around the edge and some sequins to the butterfly wings.

Thank you for visiting

    I'm still resisting Brushos, though maybe not much longer. So much temptation!
    Love your butterfly
