and because I made my own background paper for this card it also qualified for the Craft Rocket challenge here:

Here are the details of this card: The background was made with A Colorful Life stencils and distress oxide inks. Then I stamped a Gina K flower from a set that came from Unity in versafine black over that, also a text stamp was used fom Bo Bunny, and the main focus is the layer butterfly stamp that is from Hero Art, as is the sentiment. I used Distress Ink on the layering of  the butterfly. I mounted all of this onto a light blue card base. 

 

Seize the Birthday - spring florals

I made this card for the Seize the birthday challenge this week which was to use spring flowers. 

I stenciled my background using A Colorful Life stencil with distress oxide inks. Then I dry embossed the stencil using a 3-D embosing folder. This stamp set I got from Unity and it is designed by Gina K. I used blending brushes with distress oxide ink for the flowers and I used alcohol markers for the hightlights on the flowers and also for coloring the leaves. I mounted this card front on a lavender card base. The sentiment is from Impression Obsessions.
