In case you're getting sick of Christmas Cards, here's the card I did for the clean&simple #115 challenge. There's some great inspiration over there. Follow the link and take a look.
I used my new Punch Potpourri stamp set and stamped the largest flower with Tangerine Tango. I colored in each flower with a blender pen dipped into in the top of my ink pad. I had this pretty Pacific Point butterfly. Would you believe that I have a whole container of butterflies? The embosslit does 5 butterflies at a time and I rarely use them all!
I use the Basic Pearls to adorn the butterfly and Basic Rhinestones for the center of the flower.
Paper Piercing was my border of choice for this card, but oh, oh! I forgot the sentiment. Then when I added the sentiment, in the wrong place, I stamped it crooked! Aargh! That Word Window Punch saved me on that one.
There's a little sponging on the edges. I used Baja Breeze for that.

These are really pretty colors, Bonnie! And what a refreshing change to see butterflies in November. I'd rather see those (outside!) than snowflakes LOL :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Bonnie. I love that layout from C&S. The word window punch is such a useful little punch isn't it?
