Summer Card Camp Week 3 Day 2 - Sketch

This is my second card for the Summer Card Camp Week 3 Day 2 homework.
I Started off with a Kraft card base, but then decided to revert to white.
I bought new spellbinder hexagon dies today and could't wait to use them, so I die-cut a frame for the gorgeous Penny Black butterfly.


I decided to machine stitch the centre line of the sketch for a softer look. The kraft frame was stamped with a Penny Black background stamp and vintage photo ink. The sentiment and banner die-cut are from Taylored Expressions. I stamped the butterfly by colouring the stamp with distress markers
and blending, then spritzing both the stamp and the watercolour paper.
