This is the birthday card I did for my friend Jan.
The poppies were stamped with Soft Suede and colored with Stampin' Up! Markers by coloring the petals first with Pink Pirouette then swiping the Primrose marker on a plastic lid and picking up the color with a blender pen to add depth to the petals.
There was a little smudge around the flowers so I spritzed some Raspberry Ripple with the Color Spritzer tool (retired). I find that it's a good way to disguise a boo boo.
I did the antenna by snipping a tiny piece of black scrap and adhering it to the underside of the butterfly with a glue dot.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
Card Recipe
Stamps: Pleasant Poppies, Blooming with Kindness
Ink: Soft Suede, Raspberry Ripple, SU Markers (Pink Pirouette, Primrose Petals, Early Espresso, Certainly Celery, Lucky Limeade, Raspberry Ripple)
Paper: Raspberry Ripple, Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler (for butterfly)
Other: Square Lattice EF, 2 1/2" Circle Punch, Beautiful Wings Embosslit, Basic Pearls, Color Spritzer Tool
I'm so glad you took the time to stop by.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI just love your poppy card and the antenna was very clever as well as spritzing to cover any boo boos! Your friend will tresure this card. Great card!
ReplyDeleteLove this color combo...so bright & regal looking. Enjoyed reading about your 'save' too. Wonderful coloring on your poppies, liked the aperture layout with your little b/fly. I'm lovin' all the versatility you show with the Mesh EF too. Very strikingly used on this card, Miss Bonnie. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteBonnie, this is so beautiful! I love the white embossed cardstock with the sentiment stamped on it, the color of the butterfly and those beautiful poppies. Just gorgeous! Your card took my breath away and I almost forgot the reason I stopped by. I just wanted to thank you for your visit and leaving your kind comments on my blog. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty., Bonnie!! Let me start off with the butterfly, what a clever idea with the antenna!! And the Spritz was a perfect way to cover up those mistakes. I could not find it at all!! :)
