Hey y'all, I missed posting yesterday because we're getting ready for the hubs' extended family to visit next week. I did make a card to share today and I've gotta write this blog post quickly so I can get to cleaning up. So here we go!
This is a triple challenge card! First up is the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments:
I probably should have chosen a smaller sentiment to be a bit more in line with the sketch. I like this one, I can see using it over and over.
Next is the Global Design Project theme challenge:
Butterflies are definitely the supermodels of the bug world ; )
Last up is the Cupcake Inspirations challenge:
You would think I would add bugs + stripes and get bees, but nope. I started out by looking through several packs of patterned paper for some stripes and had lots of options to choose from, but I chose the gold and white stripes and went from there. I accented the butterflies with some small gold sequins from a past Paper Pumpkin kit.
Okay, I'm off to go vacuum the boy's room, there's a sandbox at his daycare and I think he's trying to bring it home one shoe-full of sand at a time. Cheers!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: Artfully Layered
Ink: Versamark
Paper: Granny Apple Green, Basic Black, Tahitian Tide, Polished Pink, Abstract Beauty DSP Stack
Accessories: white EP, Brilliant Wings dies, Stylish Shapes dies, Dimensionals, gold sequins
So bright and cheerful!
