Butterflies IPC 126

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

Today starts a NEW Inky Paws Challenge.

Check out the amazing sketch we have for you!


Using the sketch, I came up with this card!

Butterflies a card by Diane Morales using the Monarchs Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs

This card begins with the background.

Spun Sugar and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide are my

color choices along with the Butterflies Stencil Set.

The two-step stencil makes it so easy!

Remember to always start with the light color first.


 I created my butterflies right on top of the raspberry cardstock.

While the base of my card was drying, I created a wavy banner to

 go across my card using the Land Boarders Die.

This is where I decided my sentiment would go.

To create the circle element of the sketch, I used the Circle Frames Die Set.


I also stamped and colored the butterflies from the Monarchs Stamp Set.

 Because I LOVE lots of layers on my card, I popped up the butterflies with foam tape.

After I put my card together, I added some dimension

to my butterflies with some Grape Nuvo Drops.

I hope this inspires you to create something today.

Summer Fun with the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Hello everybody!

It is time for a

Here at the

SUMMER FUN!!!

When I think of summer fun I think of the beach.

Check out my first slimline card!


The base of my card is created by using the

Large Slimline Die with Sliders from Lawn Fawn

I created the ocean by “water coloring” Salty Ocean Distress Oxide onto

 Sea Glass Simon Card Stock. Then I die cut out the waves using the 

Sea Boarders Die Set by Newton’s Nook Designs.


The super cute doggies that are having fun in the waves are from the 

Corgi Beach Stamp Set by Newton’s Nook Designs.

To finish my card, I created a bright summer sun using

Squeezed Lemonade and Carved Pumpkin Distress Ink and the

Sunscape Stencil by Newton’s Nook Designs.


Hope you enjoyed my take on summer fun!
