Crafty Cardmakers and More Triple B Challenge


Hi, It's time for a new challenge at Craft Cardmakers and More and the challenge this time is 'Triple B'. You have to chose three of the five following things to include on your project.
                               Butterflies
                               Blue
                               Birthday
                               Banners
                               Buttons
Please pop on over to the Crafty Cardmakers and More blog to see the beautiful inspiration that the rest of the Design Team have created and to check out the prize, which is a fab set of stamps.

For this challenge I have chosen to use Butterflies, Birthday and Banners. I have used the 'Butterflies' stamp set from Hobby Art and stamped a selection of butterflies, masking each one after I had stamped it. I coloured the butterflies with Copic markers and a white gel pen. I then added some glitter to the butterflies wings and some glossy accents to the three top most butterflies. I then coloured the background with a selection of green Copic Markers before again masking the butterflies and stamping a fern stamp with 'Peeled Paint' Distress Ink. The text stamp is from Woodware and has been stamped onto a hand cut banner. I have used Core'dinations card stock for the layering. The finished card is 6 x 6 inches.

Hope you like my interpretation of the 'Triple B' challenge and thanks for visiting.
      Sally.

What a wonderful kaleidoscope of butterflies! All that stamping and masking must have taken some time to do but the effect is fabulous especially with your colouring, glittering and adding of glossy accents. Absolutely beautiful Sally. Debra x

Absolutely stunning, Sally! Those butterflies look quite spectacular, and I'd assumed it was a single stamp until I read your description. You must have such patience to mask them all like that!
