Hello there! Today's card uses the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set and matching punch. I will list the measurements below. When our card group met last Thursday, I had the Whisper White card base, mats and panels cut for them. They had no sample to follow so it was a "mystery" card. The four of us put them together and each one is different. This one is mine.
I used one of the butterfly stamps from the Butterfly Gala set and stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored them with my Light and Dark Call Me Clover Blends. Using the Butterfly Duet Punch, I punched them out and adhered them on the front. I added Basic Rhinestone Jewels to their bodies. I took a length of Whisper White Solid Baker's Twine and a piece of Basic Black Thick Baker's Twine (retired) and tied a double bow. I adhered a larger jewel to the knot and a couple on the patterned paper. The sentiment is stamped in Call Me Clover ink and punched with a retired 1 3/4" scalloped punch.
Now I'll show you the other creations and then we'll take a gander at my inside. Ready?

Love the mix of Black and White DSPs with the pops of color from those beautiful butterflies! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary.
DeleteGreat card! Love the b/w with the colored butterflies. Any color would do, but I like your Call Me Clover ones. And, you are right, you can't have too many butterflies. Or birds. Or trees and leaves. IMHO!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Julie.
DeleteAnother pretty card! Love the butterflies and the mix of designer papers :)
