Hello Friends,
While I may not have alot of time to make cards these days, I do manage to keep up with all beautiful inspiration and my favourite blogs. Thank goodness for smart phones :) When I saw that Freshly Made Sketches were celebrating their 400th sketch I really wanted to play along. Congratulations FMS, what a milestone.
I had a few ideas and stamp sets I wanted to use -decisions, decisions! Color Countdown helped me decide with their awesome colour combo this week. Once I saw the colours I knew which one of my new stamp sets I wanted to use. So I inked up Reverse Confetti Butterfly Blossoms stamp set which I bought in their recent sale.
Here is my card:
I loved colouring this beautiful butterfly. I think I am going to be inking up this one alot...well when I have time- hehe. I added some nuvo crystal drops to the centres of the flowers. I fuzzy cut the image and adhered in to a square white die cut. I also used another new-to-me product from Reverse Confetti - The diagonal stitches cover plate, which I love, love, love! I love adding texture to my cards. I foam mounted my square die cut onto a white panel of cardstock, which in turn was foam mounted onto some fresh green designer paper from doodlebug. The sentiment was embossed with white powder onto black cardstock and I used a sentiment strip from MFT to die-cut it out. I added some beautiful Pinkfresh Studio jewels to finish of my card.
I would also like to link this card up with Seize the Birthday #173.
Thanks so much for popping by, happy crafting.
Hugs Ax
