My card~
I remember seeing this card by Dawn on her blog in January and thought I would CASE it using this week's technique.
I sponged some ink colors on Stamper's Select White cardstock before running the Butterfly Cover Plate through my Big Kick. I left the frame intact and cut off the smallest butterfly leaving room for the pretty Birthday sentiment. Sprinkled a few purple sequins around and done. :-)
I love new challenges Helen! I'll be checking it out for sure.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Helen! Congrats on the new DT!
ReplyDeleteGreat colors and beautiful card! I love this technique :)
ReplyDeleteGreetings, Eunice
Love the ink blended colors on those gorgeous butterflies, Helen! Keep telling myself I don't need that cover plate but every time I see someone use it, it gets harder to resist. The new challenge sounds interesting and congrats on joining their DT.
ReplyDeleteHelen, these butterflies are gorgeous. I look forward to the new challenge. Thanks for letting me know and congrats on the DT.
ReplyDeleteWow Helen, your butterflies came out beautifully! I love the colors you used and also how you removed one of the butterflies to make room for your sentiment. So clever! Congratulations on your new design team position. They're so lucky to have you! I'll be watching for more details!!
