Embossed Roses

 

Some fun making a birthday card for a fellow card maker. I scored lines on card and added distress inks, shabby shutters, brushed corduroy, weathered wood with the direct to paper technique. I then dry embossed the roses and highlighted it with peeled paint. Adding the sentiment and die cut leaves.

Butterfly wave

This my version of a wave card, I love using butterflies on the wave.

I pulled out some stamps from my stash but any that fit would suit.

 I made the card base to fit into an Australia standard postage envelope and adjusted the wave panels to fit. I went stash diving for the butterfly designer paper. The stamped butterflies were coloured to match the background paper. I made this card for a fun butterfly swap. Inspired by Sam Calcutt tutorial.
