Less is More 78 and JUGS 147
Just Us Girls has a gorgeous photo as inspiration this week. Since I am a very literal person, I wanted to do justice to do this picture. I used this sketch from Less is More .
I scored the space, then using stipple brushes created the background with Adirondeck inks. The leaf-flower image was a mixture of stamps from Whipper Snapper, Stampendous, and Inkadinkadoo.
I stamped the butterfly from PaperTreyInk with Staz-On onto acteate, and colored the back of it with Copic Markers. I added some white dots with a gel pen to the front, and added the pearls (colored those with a black copic).
I liked how Giovanna created this white on white border, so I used her idea.
Thanks for looking.
