Good morning, I am back with something new to share today. I was inspired by a tag that I saw while blog browsing last week to make this set of cards. I wish that I could remember where I saw it but unfortunately I forgot to bookmark it.
Anyway, I have followed the basic style and layout that was used on the tag for my cards. I have heat embossed the floral Hero Arts background stamp and then used my Distress Inks with the emboss resist technique to achieve these rich rainbow colours.
I then heat embossed the butterflies on some patterned background papers and accented the images with more distress inks. The sentiments were heat embossed and then I have used my Distress blending tools to edge the blocks in Tea Dye to give them a slight vintage look and tone them in with the card.
I love how the simple design allowed me to put this set together quickly and I love the cheerful results.
Thanks for coming by and for all of your lovely comments they really brighten these gloomy winter days.
Be sure to stop back again tomorrow as I have yet another card to share, I am on a roll this week.
This set will be entered into the following challenges:
