Blueberry Crisp and Butterflies
September 25th, 2010 , No Comments »Hello Friends – Oh, Oh do I have a cutie for you today. I used this layout a couple of days ago on a Christmas Card for you and I liked it so much I thought I would try it with butterflies. Butterflies are sooooo pretty and Stampin' Up has several sets for you to choose from. For today I used the set called Butterfly Prints #120738. It's a small set and reasonably priced only $12.95. My cardstock today is Not Quite Navy #101722. I find this color to be a great cardbase because it coordinates so well with many of our other colors. I matted it with a pieces from Blueberry Crisp #117392 and cut 3/4" strips from some of the other patterns in the designer pack. On my last strip I added a piece of Very Vanilla #101650 and used one of my favorite punches the Scallop Trim Border Punch #118402. I can't express enough how important your tools are to your cardmaking. Besides making it quick and easy, the proper tools make your card look professional. For my focal point I used the Scallop #2 die cut #113469. It nests perfectly with a 3" circle which you can get in a snap using the Circle Scissors Plus and Glass Mat #112530/112531. My sentiment is a new one for me, don't you just love it. It's called a Word For You #120528. I love the font. For some embellishing I used the paper piercing tool and mat pack #116631/105826. I go to these tools time after time to add some depth and dimension. Mounted it on some Stampin' Up Dimensionals. I thought my Vanilla circle needed a little something so I doodled around it the a Not Quite Navy marker using the small end. I do this alot because of course you can't have a naked circle. LOL Added some pearls and viola' you have a perfect card for any occasion. Oh, and don't forget the inside, I added another piece of Very Vanilla and used one of my favorite sets Curly Cute for my happy birthday. Be sure and check out Curly Cute, I just love the font and all the cute swirls. It just makes me smile.
