Guest Designer - Laurie Unger

Time to share the work of another talented guest designer and today we have a bright and cheery card from my friend, Laurie Unger of Laurie's Stampin Place. Laurie is sharing a sweet butterfly card that features one of my favorite products - Ken Oliver Color Bursts.

Here's Lori's instructions for creating this card:

1. Using Ken Oliver color bursts in lemon yellow and burnt orange. Start with watercolor paper and spritz with water.

2. I dropped a lot of the lemon yellow onto the paper and swirled it around.

3. Next, I spritzed with water again and dropped a few drops of burnt orange and let the water do the work.

4. Let dry and then layered it with black cardstock and added it onto a white card base.

5. Cut a butterfly out of white cardstock using the memory box solid butterfly die.

6. Sponge on some Oxide inks in squeezed lemonade and spiced marmalade.

7. Next stamp some polka dots onto it for some added interest - then layered a solid black one behind it so that it would stand out from the watercolor background that I created.

8. Die cut the word hello out of black and then used Nuvo crystal glaze to put some shine on it. 

9. Adhere the butterfly using a foam square and bend the wings on it so that it appears to by flying.

10. Add a sentiment
