PAPILLION POTPOURRI CARD:

Hello there! Here's the last of the cards for this month's Card Night. I took advantage of the promotion SU! had in September and got the stamp set Papillion Potpourri and the Elegant Butterfly Punch. I also got the Bitty Butterfly Punch to use for this card as well. I started with a Very Vanilla base and added a layer of Vellum Cardstock on top that was stamped with En Francais in Crumb Cake.




On a strip of Very Vanilla, I punched out the butterflies with the Elegant Punch. I started in the center and went up as far as the punch would go, and then repeated both sides. I cut squares of Afternoon Picnic and attached them to the back with Dimensionals. Oops...before I did that, I stamped the sentiment from Loving Thoughts in Crumb Cake and added a border of Crochet Trim underneath.


Finally, I stamped the butterfly images in Vellum Cardstock using Wisteria Wonder, Crushed Curry and Coastal Cabana ink and punched then out with the Bitty Butterfly Punch. I added a little Vellum flower to each using the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and a Basic Pearl to the center.

I thought the card turned out quite lovely and would be perfect for many occasions.



I wanted to share a few pics of Quinten enjoying these beautiful days we've been having...

Ahhh...what it would be like to be 2 again!
