Happy Happenings

 

Sometimes I leave pieces of Project Life kits out on my stamp table to be sure to use them for a project in the near future and forget which set they are from...that is the case with this card!  The background that is watercolor wash and splattered is the card that I am uncertain about...

 



 

I paired it with the Happy Happenings stamp set and some It's My Party designer series paper and added a piece die cut using the Mini treat bag thinlits.  This piece has some Pool Party glitter ribbon placed behind it so you can see it through the holes.

Happy Happenings

I was playing around with some extra butterflies that I die cut awhile ago and had just left on my table for inspiration and came up with this card. 

 



 

I first took one of the butterflies and cut off a little bit of the each end of the middle and wrapped linen thread around it.  Then I attached another butterfly behind in but only in the middle so it has some dimension. 

 

The stamped background behind the butterfly is an image from I Think You're Great that I stamped twice and the sentiments are from the Happy Happenings stamp set.

Lots of Washi Tape

 

I was messing around with different designer series washi tapes on this card to create my background and I think I stopped adding before it became too much, what do you think? 

 

I added a layer of Pink Pirouette card stock stamped with the Summer Silhouettes stamp set and Crushed Curry ink under the Tags and Labels framelit cut out I used for my sentiment layer.

 

A little bit of Old Olive taffeta ribbon and a brad completed the card.
