I'm skipping ahead though. I need to first welcome two new team members, Lelia and Christine. I've added their blogs to the list so be sure to stop by and say hi! Also, Kristie will be leaving us for a while but plans on returning later in the year. She will be missed!! The featured team member is Nicola. She is so very nice and comes up with some beautiful creations!
Okay on to my card! As I mentioned, I used Danni's photo from last week's challenge for my card this week. I just LOVED the colors and how the flower and butterfly were the main focus. I learned that Danni is not only a very talented card maker but also an awesome photographer!! I pretty much duplicated her photo completely!
I LOVE the gerbera daisy stamp from TAC. The butterfly is a retired GWP stamp from TAC. I inked it with orange and rolled a little black ink on the edges. After stamping it, I covered it in Diamond Glaze and added a little glitter to it. Once it was dry, I cut it out and layered it. Below is a better look at the butterfly.
I wish you could see the glitter. It's not a lot but enough that it stands out IRL. So what do you think? Be sure to visit Danni's blog to see her creation and to play along. You can link your card there so we can all check it out! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Thanks for looking!!
