The inspiration for today's clean and simple card came from the the creative chaos on my craft mat. I was making this card for a design team assignment and had butterfly stamps and die cuts all over my work mat .....
I used this sketch from Paper Smooches Designer Drafts Challenge as the starting point for my design and made some minor adjustments.
And here's a close-up of the butterfly turned flower. I don't know if you can tell from the picture but I used foam adhesive to make the top of the flower pop off the page. The bottom is mounted flush to the page with liquid adhesive.
Supplies:
Paper: Bazzill Card Shoppe Cardstock (pink); Tim Holtz Distress Water Color Cardstock (white);
Stamp: Paper Smooches Flap Happy (butterfly); Birthday Sampler (sentiment)
Die: Paper Smooches Butterflies 3
Ink: StazOn (Brown); Tim Holtz Distress markers (Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry)
Adhesive: Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Squares; Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue
