This is for the Featured Stamper Challenge honoring Penny Strawberry's gallery. She has a nice variety for your inspiration.
On this card - Melody's Birthday Card 2015 by Penny Strawberry at Splitcoaststampers,
I love how Penny used different embossing folders. For my case, I changed the following - used a white backdrop & butterfly, instead of black. I put strips of embossed c/s in various colors on a mat of white and attached it to the card base with Dimensionals to raise it up. Penny used wonderful colors. I decided to use the rainbow color acronym for my colors. Lastly, I changed Happy Birthday to Thinking of You. I wanted to add some glitter to my butterfly. My Dazzlin' Details bottle was not working well, so I used a brush to paint it onto the butterfly. It's very sparkly. When it dried, the wings got stiff & curved upwards, so I mounted the butterfly only in the middle. I love how the different rainbow colors show through the wings.
Here are the colors and embossing folders that I used.
R - Real Red - Delicate Dots
O - Pumpkin Pie - Tiny Triangles
Y - Daffodil Delight - Fancy Fan
G - Bermuda Bay - Decorative Dots
B - Tempting with Turquoise - Snow Burst
I - Lovely Lilac - Perfect Polka Dots
V - Orchid Opulence - Happy Hearts
Thanks for looking. Congratulations to Penny for being the Featured Stamper!
