All Natural (SFYTT)




I couldn't wait to use Jen's Sketch for you to try using my All Natural stamps by Basic Grey. The card base is cool caribbean with basic black. The DP is Basic Grey's Urban Prairie. I stamped the flower pods in cool caribbean. The flower is a 2-step stamp with the base stamped in baja breeze and the outline in pacific point. I colored the flower pods using twinkling H2O's and some stickles on the flower. Since I wanted the butterfly to have a two-dimensional look, I stamped the butterfly with timber brown StazOn and stamped the same butterfly on barely banana. I cut out just the wings on the barely banana cardstock and used dimensionals to pop-up the wings. I added cooper stickles to the wings for added effect. I used my Cuttlebug for the kiwi kiss strip and added some chocolate chip ink to the impression. I used my nestabilities to cut out the image and added a matching velvet ribbon and polka-dot ribbon for the sentiment. TFL!

Oh, this is so pretty! I am going to have to try my H20's! Where did you find that embossing folder? I am looking for that one. HL did not have it last time I was there.

Such a pretty card! I love that paper but would be afraid to use it if I had it - I really like how you used it. The flower and the butterfly look great too.

LOVE your Basic Grey butterfly! This paper is one of my favorites...they look great paired together! I love the layered ribbon. Bet this is even prettier IRL with all the twinkle and texture!
