Fluttering by

Hello and welcome to the blog today. I managed to squeeze in a little crafty time to create a quick card for a couple of challenges.


I started by trimming down a panel and stamping part of a background (Leafy vines, Hero Arts) in Lemon Ice (CP ink) with the help of the MISTI and then selectively inked up the stamp again using Garden Party (CP ink) for a little colour variation. The butterflies (Pretty Pink Posh) were in my UFO elements box and ready to be popped up after I had stamped my sentiment (Essentials by Ellen) and adhered my panel to my card base.

I'm playing at:

LIM - #393 Subtle colours


AAA Cards - #138 Along the edge


Penny Black and More - Spring time

  2. Your card is very soft and delicate Marianne and I recognise that background stamp which I have as a really old wood mounted one from HA. It's lovely to see you at Penny Black and More challenge again, thanks so much for joining in.

  4. Brilliantly CAS - I love that you only used half the stamp on the card. Something you could do with a large piece of paper and get more than one card out of - giving myself ideas now! xx
