I really love the new Vintage Vogue stamp set and Very Vintage wheel! I created this card using just the Very Vintage wheel, inked with Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink. Then, the images were watercolored using an Aquapainter and Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry Ink (lifted from the ink pad lids).
After the focal image was watercolored, I applied Crystal Effects on the butterfly (was a wonderful surprise to discover this on the wheel, since it is not shown in the portion of the wheel displayed in the Occasions Mini Catalog!) and on the flowers.
I sponged Rich Razzleberry around the outside of the focal image, and around the Pretty in Pink layer (my first sample was just a card front . . . but I wanted to make it into a usable card! Have been seeing a lot of tone on tone layering like this in the blogosphere lately, so thought I'd give it a try. Really like the effect.)
The greeting is from the Well Scripted stamp set, which is also from the Occasions Mini.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Such a pretty card.. I was surprised to see the butterfly too, I also love that you've used the watercolor technique with this wheel! Very pretty!
