Birthday Butterflies – Cool Colour Combo

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Often times I have an idea for a card it could be a theme or a colour combo or a sketch. Today it was a colour combo that caught my eye and I wanted to play with it. In the video I work thru the various ideas and thoughts for pulling together a design to show the colours to their best. Although I have made this as a birthday card it would be perfect for a thank you, thinking of you, inspirational even as a sympathy card, just change out the greeting and you are good to go!

  • Base Card: 8 1/4 x 503/4 Basic Black Card ~ scored @ 4 1/8
  • Layer 1: 5 1/2 x 3 7/8 Basic White Card ~ run thru embossing machine with Distressed Tile Embossing Folder
  • Layer 2: 1 piece 5 x 1 1/4 Petal Pink Card
