Watercolor Wings

Purple combinations are always a hit.
This was one of the cards at last week's Fast & Fabulous Cards Class.
Everyone loved the color combo but especially all of the sparkles on the butterflies.
Watercolor WingsThis card features the Watercolor Wings stamp set and the Fluttering Embossing Folder — two great new products.  The big butterfly is a 3-step stamp.
First we stamped the main portion of the wings using Wisteria Wonder that was stamped off once.  Next we stamped the wing edges again with Wisteria Wonder but this time full strength.  Last we stamped the inside wings and dots using Elegant Eggplant.  The butterfly is cut out with the Bold Butterfly Framelit.

The card front has an extra cut and fold to create a unique look and
border — this was so much fun.

You’ve Got This Birthday Wishes

It seems I never have enough birthday cards on hand so here's another one.
The You've Got This stamp set is perfect for every occasion.
It has a great background image that can be used with any stamp.
You've Got This
The base of the card is Bermuda Bay with a layer of Pool Party.
I cut out the center of the of Pool Party cardstock using the Lots of Labels framelit.
I centered the Pool Party piece over the Bermuda Bay base and center the next smaller size of the Lots of Labels framelit in the Pool Party opening so there was a nice frame.  I stamped Birthday Wishes (from Build a Birthday stamp set) on Whisper White cardstock with Bermuda Bay ink and adhered to the card base and then adhered the Pool Party cardstock over it, centering it on the card base.  The background stamp is stamped with Soft Sky ink and the flower image is stamped with Bermuda Bay ink.
I embossed it with the Elegant Dots embossing folder.
