Happy Tuesday! How y’all doing? Wow it has been busy around here . . . lots of crafty time! I’ve been super busy with monthly projects, tutorials and class projects. Yes, you read correct class projects . . . we’ll cover that a little more later.
I’ve had a couple of sets of stamps sitting around the studio since November or December. I can’t really remember when I got them, all I can remember is that I haven’t had time to get them inky. This weekend I made a point to sit down and color up some images (some for some special projects and some for play). After walking the little shihtz’ this morning (great weather here finally), I decided to put together a card or two with some of those images.
The one I have today is made with JustRite Stampers Botanical Butterflies. The image was colored with Copic Markers and then die cut/embossed/layered with Spellbinders™ circles.
I don’t know why I’m in a white mood lately, but white paper is calling me. Instead of building upon the white, I added some black and then dyed the seam binding to match the colors of the butterfly.
To get the seam binding to just the right color, I started with Dusty Concord Distress Ink. It was a little too red for my taste, so I kept adding Chipped Sapphire to be the right touch of blue with the purple.
The background was embossed with the new M-Bossabilities, Elite. I couldn’t resist a little sponging, with Antique Linen, and some sewing. The end flap on the card was die cut/embossed with Grand Labels Four.
That’s all I have for now. Thanks for stopping by today!
