All A Flutter

Today I have for you a quick and easy card. This card can be completed in 10 minutes or less!

Start out with “Not Quite Navy” cardstock. This color has become one of my favorites lately. It is kind of a not-so-bright and not-so-subtle but an in-between kinda color.

Using the “Inspired By Nature” stamp set and Craft White ink, stamp the bottom of the card to make grasses. While that dries….Craft Ink takes a little longer than Classic ink to dry……stamp two butterflies from the “All A Flutter” stamp image with “Bsic Black” ink. Using “Stampin’ Write Markers” color your butterflies. I used “Certainly Celery”, “Bashful Blue” and “So Saffron”. Add a “Stampin’ Dimensionals” to each butter and carefully place them on your background. The “Stampin’ Dimensional” adds height to each butterfly.

Next, using your “Big Shot” and the “Square Lattice Impressions Folder”, emboss a small rectangle in “Old Olive” cardstock. I also used the “Scallop Edge Border Punch” to decorate one edge of my strip of cardstock. Glue strip in place on the background layer and add a “Grosgrain Striped Ribbon”. This ribbon is retiring on June 30th as are others. You have only a few days left to order the “LAST CHANCE” items. I also used the “Modern Label Punch” that was also embossed the same way as the “Old Olive” strip and layered the sentiment from “Watercolor Trio” and punched with the “Large Oval Punch”.
