Tuesday with Tara {take 405} Hugs & Butterfly Kisses

Happy Tuesday!

Today I’m sharing cards featuring an Altenew stamp “Butterfly Kisses” and cards I made during my Crafty Live on Facebook last Thursday!  It’s a sweet little stamp set and for these cards I chose to keep it simple with one of my favorite things… Distress Oxide on Kraft paper!  The inks I’ve used are Squeezed Lemonade, Saltwater Taffy & Salvaged Patina and they are such a happy, summery trio of color!

I simply stamped the wings then set them aside to dry before using Versafine Clair in Nocturne to stamp the bodies.  I added some splatters with Distress Oxide Spray in Saltwater Taffy and for the first card I skipped the stamp sentiment and added a die cut ‘hugs’ in Kraft, backed with yellow. Strips of paper bring all three colors onto the white card base.

The second card is super simple- stamped directly on a card base with the addition of the stamp sentiment from the set in black as well.  I also added the butterflies to a matching envelope for a fun pop of color!

These are simple, but cheerful cards!  I hope you like them!  I’ve got one more I’m finishing up still… please watch my instagram page for a look at the third card!  If you haven’t yet checked out our Altenew Blog Hop, there’s still time to be entered to win a prize!  Plus there’s tons of beautiful inspiration there!

Inky hugs,

Tara

Take 2 Precious Peony

Hello crafters. Kia here with a follow up of my card from last week using the Altenew Precious Peony Stamp set, which I cannot say enough, I just love, love, love!

Earlier this week I watched a video by Gina K Designs where she made a Double Gatefold card, and I wanted to use the design for this card today. I do love the look of the sweeping flowers which I coloured using Copic markers. When closed the layers match up, so one might think there is only one image, when there is acutally two! How fun!

The flowers are B02, B04, B06 and B06, B18, B99. For the leaves I used V01, V04, V06, V17 and BG15. The matting is done using Spellbinders Island View cardstock. My base is Neenah 110lb and the embossed layers are Hammermill 100lb. The lattice embossing is done using Spellbinders Bamboo Trellis embossing folder.

I used Tim Holtz sentiments for the Gatefold part of the card, and the inside sentiment says “Have a Beautiful Day”.

I hope you have enjoyed Take 2, and that you will give this fold card a try. If you do, remember to share it with us in the Facebook Scrap’n Stamp Challenge page. It is certainly fun to do. Thank you for visiting with Scrap’n Stamp today.

Have a Beautiful Day!
