Global Design Project: GDP254 Sketch Challenge

Hello and welcome to my blog,

Today’s card was inspired by this week’s sketch challenge over at the Global Design Project. 

I kept my card clean and simple (something I often find difficult ? as I have a craft room crammed full of wonderful craft supplies) – I’m so happy with the way it turned out.

Supplies:-

Thick Whisper White card cut @ 15.8cm x 21cm, scored @ 10.5cm for a top folding card base

Crumb Cake card cut @ 8cm x 12cm

Playing with Pattern Designer Series Paper cut @ 7.5cm x 11.5cm

Whisper White card cut @ 2.5cm x 7cm for the sentiment panel and a piece for the butterflies 

Butterfly Gala and Lovely You stamp sets

Butterfly Duet punch

Night of Navy and Crumb Cake ink pads

Night of Navy and Calypso Coral Stampin’ Write Marker pens

Wink of Stella glitter brush

Gilded Gems

Multipurpose glue

I stamped the butterflies with one of the stamps from Butterfly Gala on the piece of whisper white with Night of Navy ink and used aWink of Stella glitter brush to spread the ink – I love how this creates a two tone glittery effect. The Butterfly Duet punch does what it says on the tine and punches out two butterflies at a time, one of each size. I had to draw the bodies by hand as the stamp is AWOL! The sentiment from Lovely You is stamped in Crumb Cake on a strip of white and then it was time to assemble.

The gorgeous piece of designer series paper is adhered on to the Crumb Cake layer and the sentiment strip glued towards the bottom right of that panel. It’s easy to give the butterfly wings a little bit of shape with a bone folder before gluing the body around the sentiment. That panel was then glued to the base and a few Gilded Gems add the finishing touch.

As
always, thanks for stopping by and remember keep it crafty.
