Most would think Halloween when you see those colors, but I came across this cool technique called "Joseph's Coat" and wanted to try it with these colors. I also knew I wanted to use the Swallowtail Stamp! Head on over to Frenchiestamps to watch her video. Its a great way to do a different kind of stamp emboss resist technique.
So this is what I came up with. Not perfect by no means, but this was my first try. I had a lot of fun with my creation, leave me a comment and I can't wait to see your take on these colors!!
I even added half of the butterfly to the inside for an added touch.
Card Supplies:
stamp sets: swallowtail, label love
punch: artisan label
ink colors: tangerine tango, early espresso and elegant eggplant
cardstock: early espresso, whisper white, elegant eggplant, tangerine tango
misc.: fancy fan folder, white taffeta ribbon
