hugs

 hello crafty stampers!

Today I have a card I made for the fun challenge at Just Us Girls. It's colour week and this week's colours are:

Beautiful colours together, and so many ideas in my head. But I thought I'd use a new die I received last week with sweet butterflies.

I started by stamping the wildflowers using Darkroom Door Wildflowers Vol 1 stamp set, with Memento tuxedo black. The butterflies were die cut using Paper Rose Amaya Butterflies die and popped them up with foam so they hovered over the flowers. The dots were scraps from other die cuts (I throw out nothing! lol).  I die cut the sentiment using Paper Rose Hugs Fine Script die twice and glued them together for definition, then glued the sentiment to the card panel.

Thanks for stopping by!

wish

 hello crafty stampers!

Today I did a card for the CAS colours and sketches challenge #416 color.



I stamped the butterfly on 3 squares of inked card using the colours. The edges of the squares were also inked. I also stamped the word onto white card. Then I glued all the squares onto black card. I arranged them in a square pattern and glued them onto a coastal cabana card base. Such a pretty combination. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
stamps: darkroom door wildflowers vol 1, altenew sentiment strips
inks: altenew rubellite, volcano lake, balmy blue, memento tuxedo black

spread your wings

 hello lovely stampers!

I am sharing a simple card with you today. I took the challenge from PerfectlyCAS for this month:


  

I am loving using the distress oxide inks - the layering ability is fantastic.  I used 2 or 3 colours on my butterflies to get a graduated colour effect. Lots of inky fun!




I started by blending using the cloud stencil to make a background. Using my MISTI, I stamped each butterfly several times with parts of it inked with colour. The fun part is deciding which beautiful colour to use next! The sentiment was put among the butterflies to tie them all together. Lastly I mounted the panel onto a mint macaron card base.

Thanks for stopping by!

supplies:

darkroom door stamp: Wildflowers Vol 1
