CP113

Layers of Color is sponsoring the Card Patterns Sketch 113 this week.  One lucky randomly picked participant will receive both Embroidered Butterfly and Warbler cling art stamps. 

I used Prima Recollections patterned paper and the cling art stamp Embroidered Butterfly on my card.  The sentiment is from Sent with Love.  The sketch was so fun to figure out and I went with the Spellbinders Lacey Circle dies for the top. The butterfly was sponged with ink and popped up on pop dots. 

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Design D.I.V.A.S Blog Hop: Merci

Welcome to the Design D.I.V.A.S Oldies, but Goodies Blog Hop!!  This is the last stop in the hop and if you came from my dear friend, Linda's blog you are in just the right place, and if not, please start at the beginning HERE. The challenge is to create a card/project/scrapbook page using stamps or supplies that are 6 months old.  Well, the first Layers of Color stamp set I bought last summer was Merci Bouquet and thought it would be perfect.  I spritzed an Ivory piece of cardstock with Caribbean Blue Tattered Angels mist and stenciled the Delicious Dots art stencil using Vivid Aqua ink.  The background script is from stamped gray ink.  Recently I discovered the beautiful inking qualities of Versafine Black ink which I used on the floral images, Embroidered Butterfly and sentiment.  The only "new" thing on this design is the Grommet Tags from Spellbinders, oops! :o) couldn't help it, lol! 

Thanks for hopping with us today and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Card Patterns 87 ~ Merci

I saw the Card Patterns 87 challenge today and managed to squeeze in just a bit of stamping (amongst other things going on here today, lol!)  

   I used the Rose Blossom Frame Cling Art Stamp (since Layers of Color Art Stamps is now a Spellbinders Preferred Stamp Company this stamp works perfectly with Nestabilities Labels 16).  I paired the frame with the beautiful Embroidered Butterfly Cling Art Stamp and the sentiment is from the clear art stamp Merci Bouquet.  The background was created by sponging Memento Cantaloupe and Fired Brick Distress ink, and stamping the text from Nina's set Vintage Backgrounds in Rich Cocoa.

Here is a closer picture of the butterfly:

The picture doesn't show it as well, but I outlined parts of the butterfly with a Stardust pen, it really sparkles beautifully!
