Three Butterflies

Good Afternoon,

Time for another challenge over at Less Is More, this week Chrissie & Mandi have set us a challenge of 'Three of Anything', hmmm not challenges that are this broad always means I take a while to decide on what I am going to do.  And just to throw a spanner into the works it also has to be a one layer card.


The idea for this was the three butterflies but as the card developed I noticed I have a couple more that fall into '3' category.  I have used 3 shades of promarkers on the large butterfly and three different stamps if you include the sentiment.  I added the scored horizontal lines just to add a bit of texture to the card.

Supplies Used:
Sizzix Butterfly Stamps
Stampin Up Sentiment
ProMarkers - Pale Pink, Carnation Pink & Almond
Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Spun Sugar & Dusty Concord

That's my crafting done for the day, we have a 30th Birthday do to go to tonight, so I have to go and try and get my birds nest hair to behave its self.

Thanks for visiting

    Hi Gillian! Congratulation and the very best heartfelt wishes on your marriage. Haven’t been by in an age, DH has been so ill but he is getting better. Love, love, love your card! I wish I could do LIM cards as well as you do I find them even more difficult then masculine cards.
    Hugs
