Welcome back and happy Sunday! My card today is for this week's challenge at CAS(E) this Sketch and for the SUO Challenge to use butterflies (SUO Challenges).
When I saw the circle on the side, I knew I wanted to create negative space with the circle then fill it with the butterfly from Strength & Hope. It was stamped twice in Crisp Cantaloupe, once on the base and once on a separate piece of paper which I then fussy cut. Once the top panel was in place, and the butterfly decorated with a row of pearls, it was adhered with dimensionals.
After attaching the ribbon to the panel, I used some of Gold Cord that will be available September 1 in the Stampin' Up Holiday catalogue. It is wonderful cord and ties beautifully, unlike other versions from prior years.
The final touches were sequins and a decorative corner in the upper right. Yup, also a sneak peek from the upcoming Holiday catalogue, a new corner punch with two designs and a slot punch for tags. I've been hoping for something like this for a while and was glad Stampin' Up finally delivered!
Thanks for the visit today! I'd love to hear from you if you have a moment to leave a comment. I hope you have a great week ahead! Take care!
Hugs,
Stef
