Thanks

Hi everyone,

 

Back with a new card to share and I have taken inspiration from two challenges:

 

 

 

 

A sketch challenge from Just Us Girls

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A sentiment challenge from Paper Players

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A colour challenge from Meighan (LOL):

 

Night of Navy, Riding Hood Red, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla.

 

 

I used Night of Navy for the base of my card and then I added an embossed piece of Riding Hood Red cardstock.  The embossing folder used is the Elegant Lines textured impressions embossing folder.

 

The butterflies are from the Beautiful Wings and Beautiful Butterflies Dies and I have used the Stampin’ Pastels Night of Navy to create a touch of shading on the two Very Vanilla butterflies.

 

I have used the Circle Scissor Plus to cut out the large two circles.  The large circle is from a sheet of the Botanical Gazette DSP.

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Perfect Punches

Card: Night of Navy, Riding Hood Red, Very Vanilla
Ink: Riding Hood Red

Accessories:  Botanical Gazette DSP, 3/8” (1cm) Very Vanilla Taffeta Ribbon, Stampin‘ Pastels, Sticky Strip, Scallop Oval Extra-Large Punch, 1-3/8” x 5/8” (3.5 cm x 1.6 cm) Oval Large Punch, Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Dies, Beautiful Wings Embosslits Dies, Basic Pearls, Elegant Lines Embossing Folders, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

I am really happy with the end result – what do you think? 

 

Please come back soon….. Meg x

Inspired by Nature Challenge

Hi everyone,

 

We are so close to the weekend!  But I don’t know about you but my is already planned and will be non-stop!

 

 

 

 

 

I have not used the Inspired by Nature stamp set for a while, so I have used this set when I created my card for the Just Us Girls Challenge # 74 - JUGS74. 

 

I have placed a copy of the sketch with this posting or you can visit the Just Us Girls site if you click here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have used Pear Pizzazz for the base card and I stamped the long grass on the base card with Pear Pizzazz ink.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

Stamp set: Inspired by Nature, Bliss

Card: Pear Pizzazz, Chocolate Chip, Peach Parfait,  Whisper White
Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron

Accessories:  Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, 1/2” (1.3 cm) Pear Pizzazz Stitched Poly Ribbon,  Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems a little like the grass is moving and the light breeze is just taking the butterfly along for the ride!

 

Have a wonderful Friday…….. Meg x
