Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Ashwini wants us to use a frame on our card.
Or, build up your stash and play along with our anything goes birthday option.
I double layered it so the white on white would stand out a bit and embossed the centre offcut. These are new to me butterflies, coloured with a dab of Catherine Pooler inks.
I'm linking up to these challenges:
Supplies:
Scrapdragon frame die; Honeybee Stamps dogwood blooms embossing folder; Memory Box canyon butterfly dies; Creative Expressions happy birthday die; CP inks; scraps of metallic gold card.
Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x

ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous Cathy and I love your coloring of the pretty butterflies. Love the embossed background that lets the butterflies shine.
ReplyDeleteCathy, I love your soft, pastel butterflies. They are so beautiful on that fantastic embossing folder with your scalloped frame. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the pretty white floral dry embossed background beneath the inverted scalloped frame Cathy, and the beautiful pastel inking looks wonderful on the butterflies and the gold bodies with added gems, and the outer edges of the wings, and also the die cut sentiment, add that bit of bling to the card...gorgeous! x

That lovely embossed background really adds texture to your card but in no way takes away from those lovely butterflies that you added. I am very impressed with the way you colored your butterflies with the gold tips. This is a sweet card.
