Butterfly

The newest Compendium of Curiosities, Vol. 3 challenge comes from p. 46 called Painted Industrial.  I'm guessing that usually brings to mind steampunk types of things or perhaps picture or mirror frames.  As usual, I went outside the box.
Don't forget there is a Curiosity Crew winner of an awesome prize package from Tim & Mario but also a $50 gift certificate donated by Inspiration Emporium that will go to a randomly chosen winner.  But you must also leave a comment on all the blogs of the Curiosity Crew to be eligible.  What are you waiting for?  This challenge ends August 1st.

Sizzix:  Layered Butterfly & Embossing Folder, Birch Trees Embossing Folder, decorative strip dies (Tattered Floral Garland, Spring Greenery, Tattered Banners, Typeset)

Idea-ology:  Tissue Tape

Ranger:  distress paints, distress stains, distress markers, distress inks, Glossy Accents, Inkssentials Black Enamel Accents

Miscellaneous:  #8 tag, watercolor paper, metal foil tape, Kaisercraft pearls, black wire

I love this technique and can't wait to try it again with other folders and different colors.
