Looking back on the art I’ve been making for the past few months I’ve done quite a bit of digital work. I started really delving into Procreate when we went on Vacation earlier this year, and I haven’t stopped exploring the possibilities since. While planning for our vacation in late February and early March of his year I opted to take only my camera and iPad. No knitting, no sketch book, no art supplies. This was the first time I’d ever taken only my iPad, with the intent of creating art while on a vacation. I had a plan to limit my supplies and challenge myself to only using procreate. My plan worked, I learned a lot about procreate and I enjoyed to process. The biggest thing I learned was how very freeing being able to sit on the couch or the porch at night with just an iPad and a pencil was. There was no figuring out where to put supplies, or how to juggle a sketchbook on my lap, or being confined to the table. The other bonus ...
For this card, I took some clear acetate, leftover from some stamp packaging and created my own stencil by cutting the butterfly in three places. Then I ink blended through the homemade stencil on to white cardstock. Using the same butterfly die I cut three of them from white cardstock and only added adhesive to the body so that the wings would remain free floating. It's quite honestly a simple card to make that has a wow factor.
