Memory Box Butterfly Spectacle

 Hello Blogging Friends!!

Today I am sharing 3 cards that I made for the Turner Syndrome Butterflies that I made with the Memory Box Butterfly Spectacle die.

I am entering the first one in the Memory Box Challenge #69 ~ "Pretty Purples"

Here is the first card:

For this A2 card I started by cutting out the Memory Box Butterfly Spectacle die with some White card stock.  I took a piece of Watercolor paper and some distress oxides in Shaded Lilac,  Wilted Violet and Seedless Preserves and smooshed them onto my craft mat.  I spritzed them with water and took a piece of acetate to pick up the inks and press it onto the watercolor paper, spraying with more water and then heat drying until I liked the background.  I then added the Butterfly Spectacle cut out on top of the watercolor paper and then added that to the Purple card base.  I took some Purple gems and added them to the butterflies bodies!  I took one of the distress oxides and stamped the sentiment onto the bottom of the card and then heat embossed it with Clear embossing powder.

Here is my 2nd card:

For this one I blended assorted Distress Oxides onto Watercolor paper and than attached the White butterfly Spectacle onto the front of the watercolored paper.  I took some Black ink and stamped the butterfly kisses onto the card.

And here is my 3rd card:

For this one I used some Graphic 45 paper that I had in my stash and then took some Black ink and stamped the sentiment onto the card.  I also cut out one of the Poppystamps Intricate Butterflies and added that to the butterfly on the left side of the card.  I took some White Pearls and added them to the butterflies bodies.

I hope you will check out the "It's A Girl Thing" Turner Syndrome Awareness 3rd Annual Blog Hop and Card Challenge!!  There are lots of great prizes to be won!  The Card Challenge ends on Sunday, February 28th!
