Morning peeps, hope everyone is OK.

A quick couple of shares which I made earlier this week, both using the same image from A Passion for Stamps, but different techniques.

The one at the top has been paper pieced onto a Nestie Fleur de Lis frame and Scribble Scrabble DP. The border is also a Nestie from the Fleur de Lis accents.

The image on the second card had been coloured with Aquamarkers and decoupaged on to frames cut from Nesties Labels 20. I ran the top piece through the cuttlebug and inked the edges with TH marigold. The DP is Daisy Bucket.

The second one is my favourite - the texture of the image panle with the layering plus those lovely corners & the black framework are just super. The first one has such a different feel to it & i love the way you have used the patterned paper for both the butterfly & the bottom border. It's great seeing the different ways one stamp can be used to give a variety of "feel"..... couldn't find the right words quite.
