Zentangle Butterfly

Here's a Design Team sample that is posting on the Chocolate Baroque Design Team Blog today. I have used a large butterfly stamp from the new stamp set 'Tangled Garden', that I mentioned in my previous post.

The full details of how I created the card can be seen on the design team blog page. Basically, I have created a wrinkle free Distress background after masking off the string, and edges of the background. I have then drawn the Zentangle patterns in the white areas, and coloured the designs with watercolour pens using a blender pen.I coloured the butterfly and flower the same way.





I find the process of tangling very relaxing, and have really enjoyed working with these stamps. I'll be back in a few days with another sample. Thanks for stopping by, xx

The movement in this is spectacular with the way the string gives a sense of the butterfliy's flight trail & I love your tangled borders top & bottom. It's also a lovely example of how well the CB earlier stamp sets work with the new releases. A real stunner this one which has me thoroughly excited about the possibilites of colour schemes & designs.
