Sending "blue" Wishes Your Way



Hello Peeps!! 

I have another card to share with you today.
This one I made using the color challenge  at the Paper Players, sadly I missed out on be able to link it up there. That is alright, I am still happy to share it with ya'll!!!

The colors for the challenge was Sahara Sand, Pistachio Pudding and Lost Lagoon.

I decide to try my hand at some Lost Lagoon  "blue" flowers.
I stamped the flower from the Butterfly Basics stamp set onto some Naturals Ivory card stock using my Black Stazon ink pad.
I colored up the image using my aqua painter and ink pads.
I then made the crazy decision to hand cut out this image. LOL!! 
It wasn't too hard to do, mmmm yea NOT to bad at all!!!
I then set it aside to make the rest of the card.
The base is Sahara Sand card stock and then I used another layer of Sahara to stamp the Hardwood BG onto. I used Sahara Sand ink for that.
I also stamped some leaves from the Butterfly Basic set using the Sahara ink as well.
I added a small piece of doily to the bottom corner and sponged a bit of Sahara ink onto the doily.



I added the flower image with some dimensionals. I tied some twine around the bottom and added a vintage vanilla button. 
I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Naturals card stock using Lost Lagoon ink. I hand cut the flag end, curled it a bit and glue it onto the card, tucking it under the edge of a bit of the flower leaves.
I stamped three butterflies one form the Butterfly Basics set and two from the Kinda Eclectic stamp set. I cut these out and added them to the panel, I tucked one down by the button.
I added some basic pearls to the butterfly centers.

 I then matted this piece with some more of the Naturals ivory cardstock and glued it all to the base.



Thanks for stopping by today!

Just Add Ink......Sending Wishes


Happy Friday Peeps!!

Here is a quick and easy card I put together for the challenge over at Just Add Ink.

This week it is an Inspiration Photo challenge:


I pulled the neutral and the teal colors for my card, I used Crumb Cake and Lost Lagoon.

I started with a card base of Lost Lagoon card stock. Then my next layer is Crumb Cake, I stamped a few images from the Butterfly Basic stamp set onto my crumb cake piece using crumb cake ink.


The sentiment is from the same set and also stamped with crumb cake ink.
I then die cut a pretty butterfly using the Stampin Up Butterfly thinlits die and Lost Lagoon card stock.
I glued the butterfly onto the crumb cake piece and added a few rhinestones down the middle.
Pretty sweet, love that butterfly!
Thanks for stopping by today!
