Swallowtail on Crumb Cake
September 30, 2014
Painting a little whisper white craft ink on this crumb cake Swallowtail butterfly gives a great base for layering on a pop of colour to create a beautiful, soft finish. The colours I've chosen here are Island Indigo and Garden Green. I've added a little border of vellum and then kept embellishments rustic and simple with a little burlap and bakers twine.
This technique was a special class request. Is there something you would like to see featured in an upcoming class?
