Hi everyone! I'm the hostess this week over at Just Us Girls for the color challenge. I chose kraft, orchid, and white.
I really like this combination! I started by sponging some orchid ink through a stencil for the background. Then I die cut two butterflies - one solid and one a detailed cut. The solid one was cut from orchid paper and the detailed one from white card stock. I ran it through the Xyron machine and covered it with Stickles dry glitter. The sentiment was stamped with kraft ink. I embossed the bottom of the kraft card stock with one of those single strip embossing folders.
I'm also participating in a birthday blog hop for Sandie from London Times. Her birthday was yesterday and there's a Linky Tool on this blog if you know Sandie (or not!) and want to link up a birthday card for her. Happy Birthday Sandie! I hope you enjoyed your day!
I loosely followed this week's CAS(E) this Sketch.
You can see more inspiration from the JUGs DT and our guest designer.
Thanks for stopping by!
