Good morning everyone! It's Thursday and that means one more day closer to the weekend! Woohoo! But I must focus on today. And today is the Create with Connie and Mary challenge! Woohoo! I always love their challenges and all the great inspiration from the designers! This week we have a beautiful color challenge!
Basic Grey, Lost Lagoon and Sahara Sand are the colors to use this week. At first they reminded me of winter colors and I wasn't in the mood to do anything related to winter. Plus the temperatures have just been unseasonably warm around here! Love it! So I got out some new products and went to work!
This is a super simple card but really like how this turned out!
- Card base is Sahara Sand
- Stamp the leafy image from Butterfly Basics onto the card base using Sahara Sand ink stamping several times without reinking
- Stamp the sentiment onto the card base using Basic Grey ink
- Stamp the butterfly image onto a piece of Lost Lagoon card stock using Lost Lagoon ink and cut out using the Butterflies thinlets
- Adhere butterfly to card with dimensional
- Thread a piece of linen thread through a basic metal button and tie a bow then adhere to butterfly
