Graphic 45~Botanical Tea & Kraftex by Zandra

Here is a quick little gift I made for a friend using Graphic 45’s collection Botanical Tea and

 Kraft Tex. 

Here you could see I took a Graphic 45 tag I had and die cut a sizzix butterfly.  I cut the butterfly 3x from light chipboard and then cut one from kraftex to hold it altogether. 

 I glued Tim’s mirror paper to the front and added an oval mirror in  the middle with glossy accents. 

Added a coat of gesso to the back and rubbed steel blue Inka Gold Metallic Rub to the embossed butterfly.

Added some roses using My Favorite Things Mini Royal Rose and a Kraft tex butterfly to the front, as well as added distress paint/gesso to the wood piece.

I love the back as much as the front.  I also, sprayed the back and seam binding with Lindy’s Salt Water Taffy.  Have a great week.  ~♥Hugz, Zandra♥
