BUTTERFLY FLOWER POTS


Good morning and welcome to my blog. Today is the first day of October, and this year is passing by so quickly.
Over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2, we have two new sketches, a retro sketch from the past and wonderful work by the Design Team.

Sketch #313
This is a straightforward design; it reminds me of a man's shirt pocket, and it shows off all those wonderful design papers we all have.  Especially all the ones we love and don't want to use, or we might use them on a special occasion. 

A quick look at the inside of the card.

Don't forget to drop by Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and find out what the design team have created.

Challenges I'm Entering:
Snippets used are leftover mirror card from another card I had made.  The two butterflies and the card candy were made from the scraps. 
Card Recipe:
1. Base: White French Linen card stock.
2. Coloured Card: Mulberry by American Crafts.
3. Mirrored Card: By Uniti Rose Gold
4. Design Paper: Uniti Design Paper 6 x 6

5. Image: Butterfly Flower Pots by Polkadoodles.

6. Colour Medium: Copics and a black gel pen.
7. Embellishments: Butterfly and I made my own Card Candi using the Rose Gold Mirror Board.


8. Tools Used:
9. Dies Used:

10. Inside and the back of the card:

 

Wishing everyone a wonderful month and happy crafting.
