I made this card for a friend's birthday using the current sketch at the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" white matt card blank
Uniko 'English Country Garden Butterflies' stamp and coordinating die
Hobby Art 'General Greetings' stamp
Memory Box 'Wicker Panel' die
Versafine Imperial Purple ink
Cosmic Shimmer Clear Detail embossing powder
Promarkers
Wink of Stella
Snippets of white card
I die cut the Wicker Panel from a snippet of white card and attached it across the front of the card. I used purple ink to stamp the butterfly onto another snippet of white card and embossed it with clear embossing powder before cutting it with the coordinating die. The butterfly was then coloured with Promarkers - cream and two shades of green. - with the green areas highlighted with a Wink of Stella. I put the card into my MISTI and placed the butterfly onto it so I could see where the stamp the sentiment. After removing the butterfly I stamped the sentiment with purple ink and embossed it with clear embossing powder. To finish I shaped the butterfly's wings and attached it to the front of the card.
