I just can't get enough of the 2 together... they just look so pretty!!! A while back I made a quilt (it's still unbacked due to my new "hobby" taking over my whole existence) and these were the main colours. Making all these cards reminds me that I ought to finish it.
Anyway - this is the other "Thank You" card for my sister - and another extract from her dissertation! Does this extract make it any easier to guess the subject ;) Didn't think so.
Supplies: Stamp and Ink (on butterflies) - Hero Arts; PP - Zoe Pearn Digital (here); Punch -Martha Stewart; Nesties - Labels 1; Sewing Machine; thread.
Tips: I sponged the pool ink onto the sentiment using a Hero Arts Silky Sponge. I punched the butterflies out of some paper scraps that had been stamped with the Hero Arts Antique Flower stamp. I lined it up carefully so the pattern was mirrored.
these are beautiful colors together and a beautifully crafted card...love how you punched the butterflies, amazing attention to detail!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic! I love that you are using your sister's work on your cards.
