Sketch 12 - Birthday butterflies

This is sketch 11 from

Kendra's Card Challenge 2

This time I have gone with night of navy

and polished pink card to tie in with the

butterfly bijou papers.

I used a tiny little die that embosses a brick finish

from the Brilliant Wings dies on the pink card.

The two butterflies were also created

using the same die set.

I stamped a large Happy Birthday

from the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set

in night of navy ink.

So quick and easy!!

Sketch 10 - A Grand Kid

Happy Monday!

Today I am sharing card number 10 in

Kendra's card challenge.

For this one I have used

A Grand Kid stamp set.

The papers are the same as with all the other cards,

butterfly bijou and  have used the 2 1/4" and 2" circle punches

for the centre.

The background paper has been die cut with

the stitched whimsy dies, as well as the two

smaller squares.

The happy birthday sentiment has been stamped

in polished pink ink.

I am like sneezy McDuck today with hay fever!

The price of having this weather lol.

Have a great week!

 

Fluttering by to say Thank You

This is sketch 8 from Kendra's Challenge.

It was quick and simple to make.

The background is in daffodil delight card

which I embossed using the pinewood planks

embossing folder.

As I had more of the paper left I cut out some

more butterflies and added them so the wings would

sit up.

I finished it off with a stamped sentiment in daffodil delight ink 

and punched out using the everyday label punch.

The jewels are from the new in-colour pack.
