This month is hosted by Robyn, and she wants us to use sprays through a stencil for our cards.
I used a new-to-me stencil to create a beautiful kaleidoscope of butterflies soaring through the air. I added some magical powders to a mister to create a spray for the stencil. It turned out well, but very soft purple, with lots of liquid, so I sprinkled more powder over top. Once completely dry, I tapped off the excess powder so the background remained white.
I added a clear heat embossed black sentiment on a torn vellum banner to finish the card.

Your butterflies are beautiful Loll - and the torn vellum fits perfectly. x
The colours on the butterflies look amazing. I think I will have to experiment more with sprays. I love what you and the other designers have created xx
WOW! I have not seen such stunning butterflies for a long time, Loll! Did I understand the description well? You first scattered powders on the panel, then applied a stencil and sprayed with water? And then he added powders? The final result is amazing. Thank you for another wonderful inspiration.

Beautiful colors and shimmer on your flutter of butterflies Loll! A lovely CAS design that packs a punch! xx
This is beautiful, Loll, what a lovely stencil. xx
Such lovely butterflies! Wonderful design and great touch with the vellum!
Beautiful butterflies, Loll! They look like they're flying into the sun with their bright wings! Love the torn vellum for the sentiment! A very dreamy card, my friend!
That purple is just stunning and you can see some of the green interference colours within, and perfect with the added torn vellum for that very apt sentiment. A stunning card Loll. x
Beautiful! Wonderful colour, gorgeous butterflies, great sentiment treatment!
the extra powder really created some shimmer from the lindy's magicals, so perfect for your butterflies :)
Amazing results with adding the Magicals to the damp stenciling, Loll...your card is beautiful, love this flurry of butterflies and simply finished with the vellum sentiment, Robyn
Beautiful magical butterflies, Loll. I love how you added additional powder and the perfect sentiment on vellum, which did not cover up any of the pretty butterflies. TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy
These butterflies are wonderful fluttering across the page
What a cool stencil Loll and an absolutely BEAUTIFUL card! Love the color of the butterflies and that little sparkle of green that I'm seeing amongst the blue...SOOOO pretty!! Love the way you did the sentiment too!! Hugs. :0)
Awesome color with the powder in a mister. Love the torn vellum.
Gorgeous butterflies, Loll! What a great idea to first spray with color and then sprinkle the color. The vellum is also a great idea so as not to cut off the visual flow of the butterfly movement.
Your soaring butterflies are absolutely beautiful, Loll! I love the variation of all those pretty shimmery blues and your clever idea to add more Magicals! Your sentiment is perfect on torn vellum...Love this stunning card!
Oh what a beauty Loll - such a vibrant result!!
Blessings

Oh sooooo gorgeous, Loll ... the shimmer amid all that beautiful blue is fabulous! Hugs, Anita :)
Oooh, just look at all those pretty butterflies ...... beautiful! I love the soft, dleicate look from the strip of vellum too xx
On the zoom you can see the play of colors of magic powders. Incredible! I love how the colors are unevenly distributed, made the butterflies fly
