Hi everyone, sometimes I like to make more involved cards and other times I like to create something a little more on the simple side. Today’s card was very simple to make and I think it came up well. I used the gorgeous Butterfly Gala bundle (contains the Butterfly Gala stamp set and the Butterfly Duet Punch) and teamed it up with the super pretty Botanical Butterfly DSP which you can earn for free during Sale-A-Bration.
Here’s the Card…
The trickiest part of this design was the two colour stamping on the sentiment but even that was made easy with the Stamparatus. After positioning both my paper in the Stamparatus and my stamp on the Stamparatus plate, I inked up the entire stamp with Highland Heather and stamped the paper. Since I was going to be using black for the next step and that would cover the Highland Heather there was no point in making more work for myself. After cleaning the stamp and making sure it was perfectly dry, I used post-it notes to cover the areas I didn’t want to ink in black. When I was happy with the coverage I stamped the sentiment. The Stamparatus ensured I stamped the greeting perfectly. I love this tool!
Isn’t it a sweet card? You could even simplify it more by only using the one colour of ink for the sentiment. Do you love making simple cards or those that are a little more involved?
Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!
