Papertrey September Blog Hop Challenge


Keeping things simple today, and being inspired by the image for the Papertrey Ink September Blog Hop.




I started with a kraft card base and stamped the leaves from In Bloom with black ink, and some splatters with an older anniversary set. Then I created a white focal panel and embossed with the Woodgrain Impression Plate. I die cut the butterfly from Simply Chartruese cardstock and stamped the largest bloom from In Bloom over it. I added an antennae with black floss. The card was finished with a white heat embossed banner, the sentiment coming from Fillable Frames #2.

Off to hop, and see how everyone was inspired by this clean and crisp image!

    The floss antennae really adds to the total design, Karen. Love how you coordinated your butterfly with the leaf background. The black splatters finished it off beautifully.
