I have a couple of cards to share with you today. The first one is for CAS-ual Fridays Kraft On Challenge.
I punched out a bunch of butterflies from kraft card stock and adhered it to a kraft card base. For the coloured butterflies I inked up some glossy card stock with alcohol inks in shades of blue and added a bit of shimmer with some mixatives and the sentiment was stamped on vellum.
My next card is for the Simon Says Autumn Leaves Challenge.
This card has a white card base with a white vellum overlay that is attached to the card base with just the twine. The leaves were inked with Distress Inks and stamped onto the vellum and I used a die to emboss a frame around the sentiment.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting!

Sue, you are definitely one of my favorite card makers! I love both of these gorgeous cards! I can't believe you punched out all those butterflies, and what a great idea to add a few more in that beautiful blue! Love your second card too - the vellum overlay is so soft looking and your leaves are stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteTWO beauties, Sue! LOVE the faux-embossing on the first one (pinned it) and the vellum layer on the 2nd one is a lovely touch! So glad you joined us this week at the Simon Says Stamp challenge!
