Hello Friends!
I cannot believe how fast this week is going by! Is it me or do you all feel the same way? My new friend Brenda, is hosting this week's challenge over at Bitten by the Bug 2 and I thought I'd play along. The challenge was to use any card feature on any cricut cartridge so I pulled out my Art Philosophy cartridge and came up with this.......
Pinspired Challenge #6
I decided to cut this cute scalloped card from page 33, out of some plum cardstock by Recollections. I cut this out at 5 1/2". I cut out the cute decorative frame out of vintage cream cardstock by Papertrey Ink and then embossed it using my damask embossing folder. I took some Tim Holtz tea dye distress ink to bring out the embossing. I also cut out a layer for the front of the card out of some pretty patterned paper from My Mind's Eye at 5 1/4".
I then cut out the butterfly on page 55, also in vintage cream cardstock. I cut this twice, once at 2 1/2" and once at 1 1/2". I ran the butterflies through my ebosser using my swiss dots embossing folder and inked them up with the tea dye distress ink. I used some rock candy stickles on the butterflies to add some sparkle and used some Petal Pink Liquid Pearls for the butterflies' bodies and also on the decorative frame front. The sentiment, "Follow your dreams" is from Close to my Heart's stamp set called "Follow your Dreams". I stamped that out using my archival ink by Ranger. To finish off the card, I added some Royal Jewels in pink.
Here is a peek at the inside of my card that uses the sentiment/quote, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams"-(Eleanor Roosevelt) also from the same stamp set and I carried the theme from the front of the card to the inside.
Well that is my card for today! I hope you enjoyed it!
I am also entering this card in the following challenges:
I hope you get crafty and join the challenges too!
