Pink butterfly

A quick thinking of you I made with a few challenges in mind. 

Muse Challenge

The Card Concept

and at
CASology

My clean and simple card...

A closeup of the butterfly so you can see the ombre and sparkle!

The card was finished pretty quickly. Starting with the background I used gray ink for a tone on tone background with a stencil. The panel was a scrap paper that I stamped with the butterfly and sentiment, then used a small circle punch to add the decorative corners. On another scrap I stamped and colored the butterfly again with some copics before fussy cutting it. It's glued to the panel by it's body while the wings are attached with foam squares for dimension. One the glue was dry I added clear Wink of Stella over the intire butterfly.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!

Pumpkin Thanks!

 I like to make mini cards for my Avon customers when they order. I tend to stick with 3x3 size which is a great size to fit in just about any size bag. I like to try to make them a theme for for the month in which they order, so this month I decided to do a pumpkin. Which just so happened to fit with the following challenges:

 Lawnscaping challenge. 

 The Card Concept.

Clean and simple

I got the Lawn Fawn So Thankful set earlier this year and hadn't used it yet. The pumpkins are the perfect size for a mini card.

To make the cards I just folded a 6x3 piece of card stock (110 lb) in half and added the a woodgrain washi tape at the bottom. The pumpkin and leaf images were stamped in Desert Sand Memento ink and colored with copics. The curly vines and sentiment were stamped using Memento Luxe in Rich Cocoa. I didn't saturate the paper to much with the Copics so the bleeding was very minimal.

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful day!
