This week's challenge at the Hero Arts blog is a fun one. The winners of the Win-A-Day blog challenge are being featured & the challenge is to create cards inspired by their designs.
This card is inspired by Monday's Win-A-Day featured stamper Kelly Booth. My card was inspired by her Butterflies card. I loved how she combined the butterflies with the bright colors and a pop of black. All papers are from Basic Grey's Urban Prairie 12" collection. I love stamping on designer papers.
The Rain Drop background was stamped for the base. I wish this stamp were a bit larger to cover the entire base of a standard size card. The border is Martha Stewart punch, but instead of trimming off the bottom, I left it attached to form a frame to the lattice design.
The Together sentiment was stamped in ColorBox Charcoal Chalk ink on three different patterned papers and clear embossed. I trimmed the butterfly twice to attach and provide dimension. I colored the wings with a combination of glaze, glitter and sparkle pens. I finished with Hero arts adhesive gems in teal, pink and clear.
The card is so pretty. I just love the colors and love the bling on the butterflies. Thanks for this beautiful inspiration.
Absolutely love everything you did here, Stef! I’m in love with the Urban Prairie papers, and I love the overstamping on them. My favorite is the way you used the border punch – a whole new look! Love it!
Washi wow! I like to make candy corn fudge with white Chips this time of year. Just found your blog. I will be back to visit soon.
