Today, I'm participating in the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.
This month's challenge is this fabulous inspirational photo:
I was inspired by the oval shapes and the colours to make my card,
using the Life is Beautiful butterfly dies.
I started with an aqua mist background, on which I stamped a stamp from Brushed Off
several times in aqua mist.
Then, I stamped the sentiment from Phrases and Praises.
I diecut the butterflies from orange zest and kraft cardstock.
On the orange solid butterflies, I stamped the same Brushed Off stamp in orange zest.
On the kraft butterflies, I inked the middle of each one in black with my blending tool.
Then, I swiped some aqua mist ink onto a scrap of aqua mist cardstock and diecut the outside
edges of the butterflies and added those pieces to my card.
Thanks for looking!
