This is for QFTD53 and IC277. Today I am honoring our Queen for the Day-Karen Dunbrook and I am using colors inspired by the inspiration site Ruche. Congratulations, Karen! You are a queen and a wonderful designer. I love your work and your wonderful support here on SCS. Thanks to Stephanie for supplying wonderful inspiration sites each week.
I loved Karen's card with the Friend sentiment placed in the oval frame and the popped up butterflies. I kept Karen's same layout but changed the color combination to use the black, yellow and white of the Ruche inspiration dress. I didn't use the lattice background on my oval frame as I wanted to use a larger sentiment found in my brand new Butterflies Are Free set. I chose to add two mats to the oval frame instead. I stamped one of the butterflies in the set on the marigold cardstock with versafine black and embossed with black ep. I cut them out and popped them up like Karen did on her card.
There is nothing quite as nice for me as starting my Saturday morning off playing in our challenges.
