This is for three challenges. The first is for the Ways to Use It Challenge and that was to use Vellum on our card. The odd thing is I have been planning on making a card using vellum. I have always loved the look of it
The next challenge is for the Twisted Sistah Challenge issued by Tater which was to make a card with something uplifting. Ideas were a balloon, kite or scripture. Well my sentiment is uplifting and so it the little butterfly.
Well I actually found another challenge last night I wanted to add this card to and it is 4 Crafty Chicks Challenge, Sentiments only.
I cut two dies from Romantic Rectangles/SB in So Saffron. Cut a Memory Box die in whisper white. Stamped some leaves in Versa Mark and embossed using white ep/SU. I stamped on vellum using Versa Mark using a flower from Always Eleanor and I cut a butterfly from a Cherry Lynn die in vellum. I embossed the flowers again using white ep and cut them out. The butterfly I used a Saffron marker on. Added stickles to the edges and liquid pearls in the center. Also used some liquid pearls on two corners.
Thanks for looking and hope you like it.
