Today I am back with this card that I made for a few challenges in mind.
This is my entry to the Paper Players Challenge #236 and to the Fusion Card Challenge- Floral Fusion. |
Last week when I looked up current challenges there where just amazing inspiration pictures: flowers, violets, purples and more flowers. All where yelling at me, make me into a card. Unfortunately I missed the deadline at Card Concept even though that beautiful flower bouquet really inspired me to use this Sketchy Rose for my card. I also took the colours from Fusion challenge and at the Paper Players there is going on a floral challenge and the DT over there has made such a beautiful cards.
I started with stamping the rose from Sketchy Rose and the biggest butterfly Painted Butterflies onto a white card stock with light grey ink. I just purchased my first copics and I have been playing with them for a about a week now. It was very difficult at first but then I kinda got hang of it but still lot to be learn. The butterfly was then cut with scissors and adhered with liquid glue and foam tape onto the front panel of the card. I die cut the "Hello"-window with Halftone Hello die and stamped the sentiments with black pigment ink. Sentiments are from Halftone Hello and Sketchy Rose sets.
Here is what this card looks inside. |
