For this I added some ultra fine glitter into my texture paste , which gave it a rough texture that I quite liked...I applied some to torn cardstock and then stamped the flourish stamp into it, I spritzed my stamp lightly with water first, and also applied some through the tiny dots stencil.
When dry I applied frayed burlap DI and edged in vintage photo..to warm the tone up. I added the rose stamp inked in frayed burlap to create another area of interest in the background.
The butterflies from the same set were inked in coffee archival and coloured with DI...I then made twisted wire bodies and added some seam binding dyed with distress stains.
have a fun and inky day!
