Today I have a bright and fun card to share with you. It was inspired by JUG’s Photo Challenge #303
and CASolgy’s cue word: Wings.
I stamped a Hero Arts Tiny Flags bg stamp with VersaMark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then I sponged on TH Squeezed Lemonade, Hero Arts Blue, SU Pumpkin Pie and Cucumber Crush ink.
Then I die cut a butterfly out of vellum and put the vellum on top of the bright bg to tone in down and make it a bit more CAS. I added the white die cut butterfly and sentiment and then I was finished. I’m also going to play this over at CASology’s Week 157: Wings and WAW’s Challenge #193.
Thanks for stopping by!
