So excited
to share this fun card with you today
For
the Newton’s Nook Blog.
For this card I used
Sometimes I just get in mood to play
around with items in the studio.
This was the case for the background of
this card.
I felt like I hadn't been using my
stencils enough lately, so I decided just to mess around with a few.
I randomly picked up the Floral Lace Stencil and decided to use it.
I went to the scarp pile and randomly picked
this burnt orange cardstock.
Since the card stock is so dark, I chose
to use Picked Raspberry and Kitch Flamingo Distress Oxides.
Unfortunately, when I get in these
creative moods I forget to take pictures.
ths picture came after the card was created.
Starting this card normally by tapping the
stencil down to the card stock
Just
blending my 2 oxide choices together starting with dark at the ends and
blending in.
Nothing fancy, just blend till you like it.
Once the blending was done, I placed the
card top aside to dry a bit.
I love the way the floral background came
together.
Then I started sifting through my Newton
stamps to find a stamp that would best fit this.
I decided on Newton's Flower Garden,
this would be fun, and the style would go great.
I stamped, colored, and die cut out my
images.
I also stamped out a couple of extra
butterflies because I knew I was going to use those.
The stitched frame in the Basic Frames
Die Set is one of my new favorites.
This die makes creating a card front and
base so easy!
Wanting to use a sentiment from the Cat-itudeStamp Set I had
to come up with a creative way to place my
sentiment.
I used the Speech Bubbles Die upside
down.
To assemble this card, I started with the upside-down
speech bubble and placed it on the card front first.
I added on my Kitty image popped up with
foam tape and covered up the speech bubble dibble.
My butterflies went on next followed by a
few matching gems.
This was such a fun and easy card!
I hope you get to try this card for yourself!
Thanks for
stopping by
Hope you have an awesome day
Stay crafty my friends!
