Pink and Blue Butterfly Birthday

This is a card I made using an embossed panel I made awhile back. I love how the peacock blue and pink colors work together. I love the delicate butterflies, too. Added a few sequins for sparkle. TFL!

Supplies:

Stamp: Penny Black, TSOL,

Dies: Nestabilities Circles, A2 Curved Borders One, Simon Says Stamp! Leanna Butterfly

Inks: Distress, VersaMark, white ep

Other: Ribbon, sequins from my stash

Blue Grad Card

Love the new Dreamweaver stencil I picked up the other day. I don't have much experience with stencils yet, but I did learn that there is an enormous difference when you use the right paper with distress inks. The Ranger Speciality stamping paper (matte coated cardstock) allows the colors to glide over the paper so beautifully. Definitely going to have to stock up on that paper!

Supplies Used:

Paper: Ranger Specialty Stamping Paper, teresa collins Everyday Moments

Dies: Spellbinders Sentiments One, A2 Curved Borders One, Labels One & Circles, Sizzix Stars

Stamp: Northwoods

Ink: Distress Faded Jeans & Salty Ocean

Other: Sapphire ep, Dreamweaver Stencil

I'm happy that I got to create another card for Summer School! I am entering this one in MFT's Focal Point Challenge. It is also another father's day card, so I am entering it into the Challenge at Classy Cards 'n Such, too. I was inspired by the beautiful card created by cards4joy, which I have posted below.

Thanks for looking!
