I saw the One Layer Challenge at Hero Arts a while ago, but almost forgot about it if I had not checked my e-mail a few days ago...so here's what I created...



I used an overlay cut from the Artbooking Cricut cartridge (CTMH) as a stencil and modeling paste, on the left side of the card. Then, I created my seashell "butterfly" with the masking technique and hand-drawn antennae.
I watercolored the hexagons by tapping ink pads on my mat, adding water and using a paintbrush.
Finally, I sprayed some gold ink and stamped the background text.

Supplies:
Antique Engravings and Summer Memories (Hero Arts)
Modeling Paste (Liquitex)
Artbooking Cricut cartridge (CTMH)
gold Sheer Shimmer Spritz (Tsukineko)

...and the color was from Addicted to CAS: Gold.


I used Gold Polka-Dot Washi Tape (CTMH).
I heat embossed the flower and "leaves" in gold (Ranger) and cut them out.
Take a look at the stamp set (C1576) Pick a Posie (CTMH) and guess how I "made" the leaves:

The sentiment is from (B1438) Banner Wishes (CTMH).

And if you haven't noticed, the "ribbon" is also Washi Tape! I used a wide red chevron one, and folded it in thirds to make the "ribbon". Easy peasy!
