Reach for the Stars ♥

       Good morning 


       Here I am, back with a bright & cheerful card!! Well, this is a card that I made without much planning. There was this ItsyBitsy stencil lying around & I started playing with it and this was the result.
       Though the card was unintentional, the colors were decided based on the fact that lots of challenges were based on the Tricolor theme.


       So here it is, I water-colored a Neenah solar white card stock using Distress Inks, various shades of blue with dark blue droplets splattered around.


       Then used an ItsyBitsy stencil & created the floral and butterflies using homemade texture paste. ( I was so involved that I forgot to take photos from this point. Oops!!) 


       Then colored everything using acrylic colors & added the antennae of butterflies using a black pen!! Sentiment is from Penny black Eloquence stamp set; embossed using Ranger white embossing powder.


       Added to a white card base to match the sentiments :)
