Clean and Simple card using Flower Patch

Sometimes I struggle with clean and simple card ideas as I like to cram as much detail and technique into every card and project that I do. However it is good to take things back to basics and challenge oneself to create a clean and simple card which still looks pretty.

So today's card is using Flower Patch inked in the In Colours flirty flamingo, peekaboo peach and Sweet sugarplum and then die cut using the matching Flower Fair framelits. The sentiment and flower centres are stamped in Dapper Denim from the same In Colours collection.

With a few little rhinestones about for some bling and the flowers and background popped up on dimensionals it make a clean and simple yet effective card.

Rainbow Butterfly Card

Well it has been a really wet and miserable day today so a perfect day to spend in the craft room crafting. Now I made a card the other day with a utube video using the Timeless Tags to create a rainbow of butterflies using scraps. So what if you are a beginner in the crafting world and havnt invested in a big shot die cutting machine? I know when I started crafting I couldn't afford a big shot for a good six months so I have created a card using the Bitty Butterfly punch.

Again it uses scraps of cardstock in cherry cobbler, peekaboo peach, daffodil delight, wild wasabi, marina mist, island Indigo and Sweet sugarplum.  I've used the speckles from Timeless Textures to tie the rainbow colour tones up the page and the Birthday Wishes stamp set for a fun happy, lovely, great, awesome birthday making it a fun modern teenage/young adults card.

The rhinestones have been coloured using crushed curry marker pens and left to dry to give the subtle yellow colour. You can colour either our pearls or rhinestones using our Stampin' Markers. One coat gives a subtle colour, several coats will give a darker and true to the ink pad colour. So have fun making your embellishments whatever colour you want.
