Cardpatterns 129

I followed along with my favorite card challenge blog this week.. CardPatterns! Check out their blog at http://www.cardpatterns.blogspot.com/  I decided to stick to the sketch pretty much exactly without rotating it. Here is Nina Brackett's sketch...


And this is my approach: (Click for larger image)


I started with a buttery yellow card base, which I distressed with white stamping ink. I used my handheld corrugater on tan cardstock for texture (and in replace of the scallops), then topped it with yellow striped patterned paper.  I used a tag from a tag stack with a beautiful soft butterfly print on it and then layered cream and kraft circles over it. The final touches I used were a 'Butterfly Kisses' dimensional sticker, pink ribbon tied into a bow and tiny dots of superfine pink or white glitter!  Hope you enjoy my creation!!
