1) Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #304: CAS -- I kept my card clean and simple by maintaining lots of white space and minimal embellishments. My favorite type of card!
2) CAS on Friday: Challenge #139 - Butterflies -- I let my die cut butterfly take center stage on this clean and simple card!
3) Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Distress It -- I used Tim Holtz distress ink for the blue background of my butterfly. (I'll also be linking this to the Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge #103 where the theme this week is birthdays!)
I started my card by die cutting a stitched tag and embossing it with a birthday embossing folder. Next, I die cut the solid butterfly shape, then added blue distress ink to the main card base behind the opening. Then I attached the tag to the card base and insterted the detailed butterfly die cut on top, finishing it off with a matching enamle dot. I did not stamp a sentiment on the outside because the dry embossed tag is clearly for a birthday!
Supplies Used:
Dies: MFT (Pierced Traditional Tag STAX), Simon Says Stamp (Leanna, Chrissy)
Inks: Tim Holtz distress ink (Tumbled Glass)
Other: embossing folder (Lifestyle Crafts "Happy Birthday"), enamel dots
Thank you for stopping by, I do appreciate your visits!
Take care,
Judy
This butterfly looks beautiful and really pops against the blue. Very clean and simple but sure makes an impact.
