A Set of Butterflies

Butterflies are just so much fun! They seam to be all the rage lately! So with that said I made this set of cards for my Etsy shop.

I used the Great Friends set to create this lovely cards. I started with a kraft cardbase. I stamped the label and the saying with versamark and then used white embossing powder. I stamped four butterflies in ridding hood red, baja breeze, kiwi kiss, and pacific point. These babies only have a few more days to shine in the spot light as the In Colors! I am going to miss them! Anyway....I then cut out the butterflies and mounted them onto the card with dimensionals. I also rounded some of the corners with the corner rounder punch. And there is the front! for the inside, I used whisper white cs and stamped the stem stamp from the same set with the same color of butterfly from the front. These were quick and easy!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a very creative day!!!

Butterflies

This is the card that I made for Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge #45. It is also for my sister for her 18th birthday which is tomorrow!!!

The colors for this weeks challenge are basic black, basic gray, and whisper white! My sister loves black and white, so I thought this challenge would be great for her card! I also am using my new stamp set from the Occasions Mini called Great Friend!

I decided to use card stock in all of the colors! I stamped the butterflies with Stazon Basic Black and heat embossed them with clear and tinsel silver embossing powder. (The silver powder is from Stamp-n Stuff). I cut them out and mounted them on to the ww card stock. I then created several layers of card stock. For the saying I used the same stamp set. I stamped the flourish in stazon black and then cut it out. I then stamped the saying in basic gray and cut it out to layer it on the flourish. I used my scallop edge punch on the basic gray layer.

Here is my card for Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge #44! I love the colors this week!!! One of my favorite combos!!! The colors are chocolate chip, close to cocoa, pink pirouette, and whisper white.

Oh and check out my sil's card for this challenge too!

This time I used the Bella Toile background stamp, the Cute & Curly set and the Short & Sweet set. I used whisper white craft ink, chocolate chip classic ink, and close to cocoa classic ink. For card stock, I used all of the colors from the challenge. I stamped the Bella Toile in whisper white craft ink and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Then I stamped the saying by first stamping the label on to whisper white and pink pirouette paper with close to cocoa. I stamped the saying in the middle of the pink one with chocolate chip. I cut that out. I also cut out the white label so that I was able to layer it onto my close to cocoa card stock (that was punched out with the cute & curly label punch). Anyways....then I added the close to cocoa layer that I used my scallop edge punch and the 1/16 circle punch. I added a strip if whisper white card stock and then the 5/8 chocolate chip grosgrain ribbon. I added the whisper white strip to the top that I punched with my paper piercing tool and mat pack. and for the final touch I added 3 buttons to the left corner!
