TULIPS & BUGS


 Good morning, and welcome to my blog.  Today is another Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 Challenge, and we have two new sketches and one retro sketch.

Today, I'm showcasing 
Sketch #301
This is another very easy sketch, and it's a good way to use up some of those scrap design papers and card stock we all have.
If you want to see the other sketch, I'll showcase it around the 16th of April, when last month's winners are announced.  Other wise drop over to Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2, and see what the design team have created.  You'll see Sketch # 300 as well as the retro sketch a blast from the past that Kelly decided to use.

A quick look at the inside of my card.

As I said, it's an easy sketch and it's a way to use up your scraps.

Challenges I'm Entering:

Card Recipe:

1. Base: White French Linen.
2. Coloured Card: White by Kaisercard 

3. Design Papers: Violet Crush by Kasiercraft
I can't get over it, this book is nearly empty.

4. Image: Tulips & Bugs from Bugaboo Design
5. Coloured with Copics and a Silver Gel Pen.
6. Tools Used:

7. Dies Used: Spellbinder large and small classic squares and unbranded butterfly.

8. Embellishments: The Black and white butterfly was a leftover scrap, silver gems, purple gem from my stash and a two tone Butterfly using the above die.



9. The inside and the back of the card:
I wish you a wonderful month of happy crafting.

    1. Hi Megan, thank you for your lovely comments. Unfortunitley this a really old paper pack by Kaisercraft and I don't believe it's still available. Unless you google it someone might have it for sale some where in the world. It was a brilliant pack and I have very few pages left in it. Wishing you a wonderful Easter break.
      Hugs
