My mojo is seriously missing.  It just took me so long to make this card.  Just had a hard time with which image to use.  I like how it finally came out, but it took several tries.....

Ok, so this took me all morning to do this card because when you use the MISTI you expect perfection.  I still have trouble lining up the middle of the flowers as you can see.  It took me about 4 times to get it this good and it still isn't perfect.

Oh my, what a fiasco trying to get this card done.  I have never had any trouble with smearing Versafine, Onyx Black Ink until Colleen and I heard it on a couple of videos this week saying it is pigment ink.  Well, I sure found out with this card.  It took me about 2-1/2 to 3 hours to complete this because I kept getting splotches of black ink on the white.  It was on a sheet that I had masked off the oval and sponged it but I had to cut the oval out and start over again. just insetting the oval.  I was not about to sponge this over again.  Then I forgot the sentiment and had already popped it up so tried with the Misti in case I needed to re-stamp, but there were a couple of hollow spots so we added more pop up tape and that worked but then when I took it out somehow there was more black on the white so that is when I cut it out and inset it.  Whew what a time!!!!!

A little clear Wink of Stella on butterfly body and the flowers.  I have been going crazy with watercoloring with Wink of Stella lately.

I was going to put some sequins on this but see I forgot.  Will have to go back and add them.
