Anyhoo, this is one of the new ones (!) called Patchwork Butterfly. Now, this is my first go with colouring with distress inks but I didn't have the right card. I now have some Bristol Board and will give it another go at the weekend. As Squirrel rightly pointed out it was quite difficult to move the ink around on this watercolour paper. Rome wasn't built in a day and I can only improve !!!! lol!
I can't remember what these papers are called but they're Papermania - will get back to you. I put the butterfly paper on upside down. Genius!
The punch is Martha Stewart, the dragonflies and tag are Magnolia Doo Hickeys. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I'm running out so I shall have to go and drool at their website (I can NEVER stick to my list!)
I just want to say a huge congrats to Squirrel, Bonnie and Becky our new Guest Designers over at Lili's Little Fairies. We are very lucky to have you ladies (and woodland creature!) on the DT. I'm really looking forward to working with you.
NCIS tonight - for goodness sake when will Tiva get it together! Have a fabulous weekend, hugs, Jayne x

Hi Jayne, the colours you asked about were, Sandstone, Cinnamon, Henna and Walnut. I'm not very good at mixing colours, I just tend to use the nearest one!! Hope you've had a good weekend.
