Gelatos

Here is another card using Gelatos for colouring. I began by rubbing a few colours of Gelatos onto a piece of card, blending them together with my finger, I added a spritz of water and a few grains of Perfect Pearls (although some of my Gelatos are in fact pearlised) to give a lovely sheen.
I then cut the butterfly (from Concord & 9th) from this coloured card and another from the front panel of my card. I then inlaid the die cut pieces together and twinkled the centre parts with Glamour dust.
The sentiment was stamped using a couple of colours of ink to match with the colours of the Gelatos. This is easy to do when using a MISTI of course, as each imprint is in exactly the same spot.
It's another contribution for the challenge at CAS Mix Up. A few tiny gems added a butterfly trail.

This is another card for the Casology challenge with a Marine theme. The little whales is from Stampin' Up and the sentiment a die cut from Creative Dies, Craft Essentials. The waves were cut with a die from CUTplorations.
