I gessoed an oblong canvas then painted it with some turquoise watercolour paint mixed with some gesso as I didn't have any turquoise acrylic, then I sprayed it with a couple of cosmic shimmer mists and stamped with a mesh background stamp. some lovely inca gold and sprayed with varnish. The crafty Individual stamps were stamped onto eco board then painted with distress inks and watercolours and triple embossed with UTEE, so they look like little glazed tiles, which you can't really see in the photos.
The butterflies and flowers are from one of the crafty Individual books and the butterflies were coated in glossy accents.
Just wanted to add this other photo as I was having a play on my iphone and I liked the border effect. LOL!
I have also entered this into the Dream Valley Challenge which is distressing, not too distressing I hope :-D
Happy Crafty & thanks again for all your generous comments. X

I love what you did with all your neat products. My distress ink sits on my shelf most of the time. Maybe I don't spend enough time with it.Your angels or faeries turned out great.
