ICS #15 ~ Miss you...


Fantastic sketch to inspire you this Tuesday from Inspirational Card Sketches designed by the very lovely Dawn!

This card just flowed for me I found the sketch very easy to follow and the paper just did the work for me, as is often the case!
A few details to highlight is the butterfly, simply cut and embossed in vellum and I went around the wings with an orange copic marker. The swirl I have covered recycled grey board with spotty paper and die cut. The bookplate I have used glitter paper, when I stamped the sentiment I just thought it needed a bit more and stamped directly over with the damask flourish. It's a little hard to see that I have used my palette ink pad and pressed directly onto the blue patterned paper just to tone it down a little, gives a slight texture too! Click the images for a close look!!!

Paper: October afternoon, glitter paper & card, vellum,
Die's: Martha Stewart - mini hearts edge punch, Sizzix - flourish & hearts, bookplate, Cutb'g - flower, butterfly,
