This is my sample for CC899. LeAnn is our hostess and she chose orchid oasis, sweet sorbet and starry sky for her color trio. Dessert option this week is any designer paper.
For my card I used some of the elements from the May 2022 Paper Pumpkin Kit. The gold trimmed card base was already printed with the "You" phrase. I attached the sweet sorbet panel to accent the gold "You" phrase.
I cut a butterfly in orchid oasis cardstock and the solid panel behind is cut in orchid oasis glimmer paper. I cut it in sweet sorbet and did the die inlay technique and added on the outside wings.
The "let's celebrate" phrase is from a Tim Holtz metallic sticker book. It has the phrases and then the labels to attach them to.
To finish off my card, I scattered a few starry sky enamel dots. This card will be a birthday card with that sentiment on the inside.
Hope you can play along this week. LeAnn has chosen 3 of the new Stampin' Up in-colors. We are looking forward to seeing your creations in the gallery.
