It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! This week is a fun sketch challenge…looks like a pocket card to me!
SKETCHED BUTTERFLIES
I’ve had this Sketched Butterflies Bundle for a while and think I only used it one time! It worked out pretty well to combine the butterflies with the FREE Sale-A-Bration 12×12 Bloom Inspirations Designer Paper!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Highland Heather cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- I used the small butterfly cluster image to randomly stamp them with Highland Heather Ink around the top portion of the base card.
- The Bloom Inspirations DSP was cut to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2, then cut on the diagonal (save the other piece for another card!) It was adhered to the front of the base card with Tear & Tape on the two sides and bottom creating a pocket.
- A 3/4 x 4-1/4 strip of coordinating Bloom Inspirations DSP was added across the bottom.
- For my pocket pieces, I cut 2-1/4 x 4-1/4 pieces of Flirty Flamingo and Melon Mambo cardstock.
- Next, I cut a 2 x 4 piece of the coordinating DSP and added it to the Melon Mambo one. Then cut a 2 x 4 piece of Basic White cardstock and stamped the greeting along the top in Highland Heather Ink. I also stamped a small butterfly in Memento Black towards the bottom and colored it with Peach Pie and Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends. It was added to the Flirty Flamingo cardstock.
- The medium, side and small sized butterflies were stamped with Memento Black Ink on scrap Basic White and colored with Stampin’ Blends. They were cut with the dies and added to the front and the pocket pieces with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The medium and small detail butterflies were cut with the dies from Peach Pie cardstock and adhered at the bottom of the DSP pocket piece.
- Some Two-Toned Sparkle Gems were added to the bodies of each butterfly.
- Tuck the pocket pieces inside the pocket with the butterfly wings slightly hanging over the edge as shown.
This designer paper is SO pretty and the butterflies coordinated so well with it! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
