STAMPlorations CAS sketch

Good afternoon and welcome to a post to remind you that you have until the end of the month to play along at STAMPlorations with their sketch and/or theme challenge.

For my card I went with both the sketch and theme, but you can choose either or!

      

This card uses the wrong side of a large butterfly from the Trendy Butterflies set, yep you read that right. I wanted to try the kissing technique running over at Less is More so I needed a large stamp with no detail so this was perfect.

After I inked up the butterfly in pale blue I then stamped onto a script stamp inked in dark blue to pick up the detail then stamped on a panel of white card. I repeated the technique along the edge then again on some scrap. To add a little depth I added some small butterflies in the same pale blue and an extra on the scrap.

I cut a wavy panel from another piece of white using a stitched border die and then popped it up over the stamped panel on pads. The 'spare' butterflies were fussy cut one popped over kissed stamped panel, the other over a strip with the sentiment from Dee's Artsy Impressions Flowers and Frames stamped in dark blue.
I first wanted to mount the finished panel on white but then decided to go with the same blue as the greeting, so I inked the edge of my base with dark blue before gluing it down.

That's about it from me, please check out the rest of the DT and why not join us.
