Hello, crafty friends! I'm back with another set of guest designs for the amazing Reneabouquets! I just adore her delicate designs, and of course, the stunning butterflies! So I'm always excited to pile on all the flowers, winged beauties, and sparkly bits for these designs.

First up this month is my Watercolor Reflections canvas. I used a fun watercolor resist on this canvas. I've used this technique before in previous projects, but I'm not sure I've ever done it in a tutorial video before. But you are in luck--I've got a full video tutorial for this pretty canvas up on my YouTube channel now!

In this video tutorial, you'll learn how I created this project from start to finish, including the watercolor resist, my floating frame technique, and of course adding all the butterflies and bling! Plus, I've got many of the supplies I used listed in the description box (and you can find a few of them at the bottom of this blog as well).

I really enjoyed this project because I used some of my favorite Reneabouquets butterflies and some of my favorite colors--purple and aqua. I hope that you enjoy this fun tutorial, so be sure to watch the video to see how it all comes together.

Make sure you also check out the Reneabouquets products that I used listed below. Renea makes all of her embellishments by hand and her husband even makes the chipboard that she laser cuts! Until next time, happy crafting!
