My card is for three challenges. On Splitcoaststampers today, the QFTD was Joanne aka
sleepyinseattle. I cased this card, changing the image and sentiment. I used an embossing
folder by Tim Holtz called 'Bricked'. Also, on SCS, the Free for All challenge was to use a color wheel and use 'opposite colors' on the wheel. I chose red and green.
I did the embedded image technique. I stamped my image, added my flowers and butterflies and then I ran all of it through the cuttlebug with the embossing folder. I really like this technique
I also made my card for the CAS-ual Fridays challenge #3 to make a clean and simple card and use
bling. I added the rhinestones in the centers of my flowers and around the sentiment.
Recipe:
Stamps: Stampabilities -Vine background and SU Well Scripted
Paper: PTI white cardstock and SU Real Red
Ink: Memento Bamboo Leaves, Dandelion, and Potter's Clay
Accessories: Martha Stewart classic butterfly punch, Martha Stewart Flower Patch punch (using only the flower)

Benzi, this is scrumptious! Love the technique, and those butterflies with their red-tinted wings.
