Wishing You a Colorful Day

I had an absolute blast creating this card with it's rainbow of colors using this technique on kraft cardstock. 

The sketch was inspired by the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. I did swap out flowers for butterflies. 

For this card I stamped my background in both white pigment ink and some bright rainbow colors. I used those same rainbow colors to blend my butterflies. 

My one alteration from the sketch was centering my sentiment. Because it was a die, it seems more appropriate to center it.

Take some time to create with a rainbow of colors.

Seize the Birthday Inspired

It has certainly been a while since I've posted.  Life has been a bit on the busy side, and it always puts a damper on my crafty fun.  

I managed to get some craft time the last couple of weeks, and this weekend was inspired to create a card using the inspiration at Seize the Birthday.  

I went with wet embossing, because nothing is more magical than melting embossing powder.  I stamped my cupcake images with Versafine and embossed with clear embossing powder.  My three sentiment pieces were all embossed with white embossing powder.  

Such a fun and easy card to create, and bit on the masculine side which is always a plus.

I hope you find some time to get inky!
