*Atlantic Hearts Sketch #685*

 I messed up my calendar and almost missed making my design team card for this weeks' sketch at Atlantic Hearts!  We did a mini road trip in the new car last week and thankfully I booked the entire week off work which meant I was able to get myself on track to share a card with you.

Let's look at the sketch...


And here's what I did with it...  I took some inspiration for colouring from a card I found on Pinterest.  I added the waves embossing folder to create some movement for this gorgeous butterfly!  I have a little tip for you.  I, personally, hate stamping with anything but my Versafine Clair black ink.  It's so crisp and clean!  But you can't use your Copics (or other alcohol markers as the ink will bleed).  So, I use my Misti, stamp my image lightly with Memento... I colour the image and put the piece back in my Misti and stamp on top of it with my Versafine Clair.  And BOOM!  Crisp and beautiful!
