Karin's tiles

.... and finally, the last set of tiles to be made for our forum challenge. I think we were nearly all running late on this one - sorry Karin


I ran some metal through the zipemate in cuttlebug folders (yes - I still use it!) and then painted with a mixture of Stewart Gill and Viva paints. The butterflies are embossed with clear to give them more body and shine.
