If you had come by way of of the super-talented Dawn Bennett, then you are in the right place. If not, then please start at the Sparkle N Sprinkle website! Don't forget to stop by to see the beautiful work of art by Barbara Bruder after this!
This is such a fun hop for me! I love watercoloring and the versatile stamps that Sparkle N Sprinkle carries make it so much easier to watercolor with! Here is what I came up with:
The bright purple hues were a blast! (I have always wanted to try making purple cards but I find it hard to work with.) The colors somehow not matching is another deterrant. So the only way that I could think of in order of trying to coordinate the colors is to watercolor.
I have used the "Watercolor-pooled" technique from the SparkleNSprinkle techniques section.
The butterflies heat embossed with black detail embossing powder and propped up on 3-D. Don't forget the glitters...

Pretty...I like watercoloring too lately:)
I love the butterflies. The colors are amazing.
What a lovely array of purples, Cammy! I love the touch of Tulle too!
Lovely butterflies! My favorite image! TFS!
Love your card and the purples are gorgeous! Love the added tulle as well.
Gorgeous butterflies.
Very pretty, Cammy. Your color scheme is wonderful! I love the technique too.
Love purple and butterflies, and your coloring is exquisite. Great job!
A lovely card, Cammy! Like you, I am partial to watercoloring - such a peaceful look, and you can hardly make a mistake unless using the wrong paper. Your card is so pretty in the monochromatic feel it has, and the beautiful shading on the butterflies, stamped and punched. Cammy, did you die the tulle as well? It looks shaded, like some of it is white and some is purply. Do you distress your papers by hand? or use a special tool? Distressing the edges of papers is so difficult for me. Yours looks gorgeous! hugs, de

Cammy, this turned out just beautiful. And I love the vibrant colors.
I've always been a bit afraid of trying to use watercolors, but using the embossing as a guide is a great idea...not sure why I've never thought of it before. Will have to give this a try!
