I used some of that awesome Sheer Perfection Vellum and the Nature’s Perfection stamp set from Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-A-Bration selections to create my card to share today.
The colors for my card were inspired by Can You CASE It #60.
And the design for my card was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #113.
I started by adhering a panel of Soft Sky DSP from the Subtles DSP Stacks to a panel of So Saffron card stock with SNAIL, then to a Wild Wasabi card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Then I cut a panel of Whisper White card stock and a panel from the Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum Stack (Sale-A-Bration item) to the exact same size. I colored the flower images on the vellum with my So Saffron and Wild Wasabi Stampin’ Write Markers, dried it with the low heat setting on my heat tool, the adhered it with Glue Dots to the Whisper White panel. I hid two Glue dots under the flower images and one under each butterfly. Those butterflies do hide a lot! 🙂
I stamped the butterfly image from the Nature’s Perfection stamp set (Sale-A-Bration item) in Wild Wasabi ink on a panel of So Saffron card stock, punched it out with the Elegant Butterfly Punch and adhered it to the vellum panel with a Stampin’ Dimensional. Then I stamped the butterfly image from the Butterfly Basics stamp set in Wild Wasabi ink on a Soft Sky panel, punched it out with the Bitty Butterfly Punch and adhered it with a Glue Dot to the vellum panel.
I adhered the vellum panel to the card front with SNAIL, then stamped the two banner images from the Banner Banter stamp set in Wild Wasabi and Soft Sky inks on a panel of Whisper White. I punched them out with the Banner Punch, then trimmed the extra card stock from the edges with my Paper Snips. I tucked the two banners under the vellum panel and adhered them to the card front with SNAIL.
Then I stamped the sentiment from the Banner Banter stamp set in Wild Wasabi ink on a So Saffron card stock panel and I punched it out with the Banner Punch. I trimmed a little from each side so that it matched the other two banners, then stamped the row of flowers from the Nature’s Perfection stamp set in So Saffron ink over the top. I adhered the banner to the card front with SNAIL, then added Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the butterflies to finish the card front.
I colored the flower image from the Nature’s Perfection stamp set with my So Saffron and Wild Wasabi Stampin’ Write Markers and I stamped it on a panel of Whisper White card stock inside the card.
