Hope your weekend was great. Mine was good. I am now working on a card order for a friend. I keep her supplied with all kinds of cards. I usually send her about 30 at a time. She is getting low on cards, so I thought this would be a good time to make a stack for her. You know, before I start thinking about Christmas cards and Thanksgiving and Halloween, etc.............
Today's card is made with two digis from A Day For Daisies.
Materials:
Digi Butterfly images : A Day For Daisies
Sentiment: My Favorite Things
CS: white; Pool Party (Stampin' Up)
Distress Inks: Picked Raspberries, Mowed Lawn, Bundled Sage, Victorian Velvet, and Tumbled Glass
Dye ink: Melon Mambo (Stampin' Up)
Ruffled lace, narrow satin ribbon, rick rack, rhinestones
- Print out the two digi images on white CS
- Let the printer ink dry before working with the images
- Make a card base from Pool Party CS
- Apply Victorian Velvet and then Picked Raspberries Distress ink to the Butterfly outline image
- Add to the card base
- Apply Tumbled Glass, Mowed Lawn and Bundled Sage Distress inks to the detailed butterfly
- Fussy cut the butterfly
- Layer onto the outlined butterfly with dimensional adhesive
- Add a piece of ruffled lace to the bottom edge (secure to the underside of the card front)
- Add rick rack, a small bow, and rhinestones
- On the inside distress a square of white CS with Victorian Velvet and Picked Raspberries ( as you did on the front)
- Stamp Sentiment with Melon Mambo ink
