This card is posted at the Precious Remembrance blog for my Saturday Creations post. I had to make something using the new PR set called Coffee Love. My first two posts with this set were all about coffee but today I wanted to show that you could use it for any occasion.
Here's my card:
I was going for a more mixed media look!
I used a scrap piece of TH Tissue Wrap called Melange and adhered it to a piece of chipboard with clear gesso. I rounded the corners and swiped Guatemalen Green Silks Acryllic paint around the edges and the butterfly. You can also see the Wendy Vecchi white embossing paste I applied through the Wendy Vecchi stencil for my BG. LOVE! I also watered down the green silk paint and splattered paint all over the yellow BG.
Here you can see the FAB sentiment from my Precious Remembrance Coffee Love Stamp set. I LOVE the there are two different fonts and sizes in one stamp! I hand cut the layered banners.
For my other stamping on the card I used both the TH Distress Ink and Ranger Archival ink in Aquamarine.
And this little beauty is flat for mailing (although I hand delivered it to my neighbor today!)
I hope you like my card!

Gorgeous!! :)
That butterfly is a beautiful focal point. But the design and the colors are my favorite part of this card. A mix of black and white with colors that make me smile. Ready for spring so to speak:) The sentiment is lovely; stamped on a fishtail it is a fab addition to a card that looks pretty amazing:)!
