Day 133 of 365 Cards

I'm sort of rushed today, as I am headed to Georgia to pick up my kids from Nana's house .. so I have to find satisfaction in this card, because I'm out of time for this morning! :) This is what I created.



I wanted to use this stamp set (Butterfly Wings , a previous SOTM) and had already planned for today's 365 cards inspiration to shape the card for me. The basis of the card comes from the Originals sketch, a heartfelt classic.


While I'm not in love with this card, I do like the way the butterfly wings turned out. I used the technique when one inks the stamp in one light color and then rolls the stamp in a darker ink before stamping on paper. When I adhered the wings, I only put adhesive on the part closest to the body to allow the wings to be "in flight". There is prisma glitter on the wings as well.


How did Day 133 inspire me? While there are no actual bubbles in or on my card, the inspiration manifested itself as I chose the color for the wings. When I think of bubbles, I think of blowing bubbles underwater. When I think of water, I think of blue. And so an inspiration with bubbles leads me to use the color blue. That works, right?


Supplies - Stamp set: CTMH Butterfly Wings and Thank You. Colors: CTMH grey wool, heavenly blue, star spangled blue. Other: Glaze pen, prisma glitter.
