Use Your Initials

I made this card for the Seize the Birthday 'Use Your Initials' challenge - my initials are KMB so I have used K for kraft card, M for marbled paper and B for Blue & Butterfly.


To make this card I used:
     C6 kraft card blank
     Memory Box 'Grand Happy Birthday' and 'Kaleidoscope Butterfly' dies
     Snippets of kraft card, blue marbled paper and blue corrugated card

I trimmed the marbled paper and attached it to the card blank leaving a narrow border around the edge.  I die cut the sentiment from kraft card, trimmed the sides and attached it along the lower edge of the card.  I die cut the sentiment again from a snippet of blue corrugated card - although the die cutting flattened the corrugated card it did leave a lovely textured design on the letters.  These letters were then inlaid into the card.  To finish I die cut a butterfly from kraft card and attached it to the top corner.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Allsorts - Anything Goes
     Love to Craft - Anything Goes
     Love to Scrap - Anything Goes
     Seize the Birthday - Use Your Initials (KMB)

    I love the combination of kraft and this bright blue marbled paper Kath, and the die cut butterfly cut from kraft looks great over the top, and Grand Happy Birthday die always looks fabulous on a card. x
