Butterfly Backgrounds

Hello Pretty Pink Posh friends!! Shannon here today with a watercolor background card created from the lovely new Blissful Butterflies stamp set and the Zig Clean Color markers. (We have found that the best price in the States is Amazon- they even have the new 80 pack!)

I started off by stamping all the butterflies in the set onto watercolor paper covering the whole background.

You can make the background as full, or sparce, as you want. Also, if you want a more subtle look, you could use a brown or light gray ink.

I then started coloring all my butterflies individually with my Zig Real Brush markers. I splattered of of the the colors onto the background for more interest.

This is the part where you can really have fun and use a particular color palette, or create a bright and colorful card.
