Live your dream

Hi Bloggers.

This card features the Les Papillons dies that were part of the Pick of the Week last week.

I have used some of the pastel Kraftcore that was in the pad on the show. I cut 3 solid butterflies and 3 corresponding lacey butterflies. I also cut 3 Scalloped Labels One. I sanded them a little. I layered up the butterflies mixing the colours and added them to a different colour Scalloped Labels One die cut.

For the background, I popped some Milk Card into the Couture Creations Radiant Embossing Folder and ran it through the Grand Calibur. I ran it through a second time to extend the pattern. I then inked around the edges with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink (from the Spring set) using Cut n Dry Foam.

I stamped the sentiment from the Studio 490 Live and Make Art Stamp Set using Coffee Archival. I cut it out using Spellbinders Fancy Framed Tags One and inked through the die using Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. I added a couple of Creative Expressions Faux Screw Brads in Antique Gold (I think - I don't have my samples at the mo to check) to secure the sentiment to the card.

I assembled the card as shown. I didn't have the right colour card so inked around the edges of some white card with the Peacock Feathers Distress Ink and then pierced with my Tim Holtz Ruler.

A simple card to try. Hope you like it.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.
