New Goodies!

Hi everyone...I have 2 more cards to share today. The first one is for this week’s challenge at CAS(E) This Sketch.
The sketch was created by the Super Talented, Gayatri Murali, and there are so many ways to go with it! 

I chose to use another one of my ‘new to me’ stamp sets from Clearly Besotted to create this card called Elegant Butterflies. Before I stamped them, I used selective die cutting for the lilac butterfly, so that it would pop up off the top of the card. Then, I colored them in with Copics, stamped the small ones in black, and added Wink of Stella clear glitter to add sparkle to them. I stamped the sentiment in gray, because there’s so much black on this card, and added white pearls to the center of the images.

My 2nd card is for this week’s challenge at Less is More...the recipe for this week is ‘Die Cut’!

For this card, I die cut the outline of the poppies in black, and used Copics to color in the flowers. I used the inlaid die cut technique and since I just received this Winnie & Walter stamp set, of course, I couldn’t wait to use it on a card (and that it was perfect for my son to give to his girlfriend)! I stamped it in black archival ink and used clear embossing powder to make it shiny. I wanted to keep this card really CAS, so I added a few sequins, and I was finished.

So, that’s it for me ~ Thanks so much for stopping by!
