One Layer Note

Hey!

I made time this morning to sit, relax and create, as this afternoon I am back at the hospital for a check up. One of the 'lil beans hadn't grown as much as the other at last weeks scan and they were laid awkwardly so they decided to bring me back a week early. 

Anyway, I saw Chupa's Sketchbook Saturday Challenge seen HERE and below on Facebook last night and when I saw the butterflies I had a 'lil tiny bit of mojo return. 




I know that on a sketch the elements don't have to be the shape as seen on the sketch, but sometimes a literal interpretation is the way forward and gets the creativity flowing...




I chose three of my new WPlus9 ink colours and used a simple masking technique to stamp the butterflies & sentiment. I then added a little bit of glitter for that added sparkle and no bulk to create a one layer note card.




A simple & quick design which would be easy to mass produce to create a gift set of note cards in varying colours. That's all from me today, but I will be back tomorrow with more to share, until then, thank you for stopping by today :)

Supplies
Card Stock: White (Boyes)
Ink: WPlus9 Lake House, Silver Lining & Sweet Nectar
Stamps: Uniko Studio English Country Garden - Butterflies & All Occasion Sentiments #1
Accessories: SU! Dazzling Diamonds Glitter

    Literal interpretations are a perfect way to go sometimes, and yours here is incredibly pretty. Of course, you know that I'm smitten with your gorgeous butterfly! Saving my pennies in the hopes of inviting one into my collection! Fingers crossed that all is well...keep us posted! Hugs~c
