A card for this week's MIM
I used PTI's Beautiful Butterflies and Graceful Greetings Sentiment and did the same for the butterfly as well as the sentiment. I almost threw this in the trash because I wasn't happy with the 2 colors I used, These were the DOX inks so I sprayed it and was able to get a salvageable background.
The stripes were MFT BG Diagonal Stripes that I stamped with CP black ink and got a perfect impression with one inking. Love those inks.

Can't believe you almost threw this out Lin...I love your background and the colors you used! And what a perfect idea to shadow emboss the butterfly too...love it! I really like the black & white stripes on the sides too. Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card Lin! Your story just about mimic's mine!! Mine almost ended up in the trash too! I'm so glad you persevered as the end result is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove your card and the black and white pops on the edge!
ReplyDeleteWell, I like these two colors together and that you used the technique on the butterfly and the sentiment! Great idea!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card- I bought a stripy background stamp and have forgotten to use it . seeing how you've used it will inspire me to ink it up!
