KS Monday– Butterflies Thank You

 

Butterflies_KSS_1_edited

Hello and happy Monday everyone~

It is also time for Kitchen Sink Monday and I decided to combine a couple challenges to create today’s card.

The sketch was used from Sweet Stop Sketch 147 (SSS147) and I also used the color combination from CR84FN Color Challenge 49 (CR84FN49) .

 

I used 3 Step Butterflies for the butterflies, Big & Bold Swashes for the background design and 3 Step Daisy for the sentiment.

The butterflies were stamped as following these steps: 3rd – SU basic gray, 2nd – SU so saffron, and 1st – so saffron (1 x stamp off).

I used glossy white cardstock for the background. I stamped the circle designs with VersaMark and yellow ink (SU so saffron) and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then I stamped the swash. with the kraft ink (SU crumb cake) and sponged the edge with the yellow ink. The sentiment panel was adhered on the center of the card and attached the butterflies to finish off.
