Just dropping by to let you know how excited I was to be invited by Just us Girls to be their Guest Designer for August!!!
It's a word week and the word is Autumn.
Here's what I came up with:
I used a 5" x 7" card blank and took a slightly smaller piece of white card with an aperture cut into it. I then die cut my Memory Box Toulouse background, covered it in Flitter Glu and then metallic flakes (Sunset). For a background behind this die I covered some cardstock in a sticky glitter sheet which I also die cut a butterfly from. I attached the main die cut behind the aperture with the butterfly in the corner. The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps heat embossed with copper e/p.
Thanks for dropping by - please pop on over to the JUGs blog to see the lovely samples made by the design team.
Happy crafting.
beautiful card Karen!
