I started out with a background of poorly blended distress inks - think I need some re-inkers!!! All blues from light to dark.
Next I used my fave aallandcreate stencil and added water through it to create a faux bleached bokeh effect.
I inked up my lovely stamps from Tracy Scott at Paperartsy and just stamped these beautiful butterflies....
Then mounted and outlined in blank and voila!
Have a great day!
Big hugs
