I took the plunge and entered my first Tuesday Trigger over at Moxie Fab World. I couldn't resist, since my watercolor paper pad and inks were still spread out on the table from an earlier project. It was fate, I guess. Plus, the Trigger is gorgeous!
I focused on the butterflies and reached for the set from Papertrey Ink and tested different ways of inking them up. I ended up using a combination of distress inks, Faber Castell brush markers, and Memento inks, and spritzed them with water.
I decided to make a long card to mimic the dress, and scored some lines under the sentiment to balance the card. I just love that Paper Smooches sentiment! I'm planning to give this as a monetary wedding card to my sister-in-law who'll tie the knot next month, wishing her "happy everything".
The deadline for this week's Trigger is Sunday, April 29th, so there's still time for you to enter. Thanks for stopping by today. Have a happy week!
