I made this card for an aunt that recently had surgery.
At a baby shower not too long ago she mentioned seeing
my zebra butterfly photo in the local newspaper .
She said how pretty the butterfly photo must have been in real life,
she had never seen a butterfly like that either.
I wanted to send her a print of it
and thought making it into a Get Well Soon card would be perfect.
All supplies used were from Stampin' Up! unless noted otherwise.
The outside is just the print attached to the 5" x 7"
Whisper White card front with photo mounts.
I wanted to attach magnetic sheet to the back
of the photo in case she would like to stick it to up somewhere,
but the magnets I had were not large enough.
The inside was created with Watercolor Crayons.
The first time I have ever used them - I sure need practice !
The clouds/sky were made by freehand cutting out a stencil
from scrap paper and sponging Bashful Blue ink over it.
The stamp images are from these sets:
Inspired By Nature
Garden Silhouettes
Stem Silhouettes
The butterfly die cut is from the Beautiful Wings die.
I colored it with Basic Black and Real Read markers
and mounted it with a dimensional.
The framed sentiment was created with the Labels Framelits die
and Bashful Blue card stock.
I stamped Whisper White card stock with Wisteria Wonder ink and
a stamp from the old set Versatile Verses.
The green card stock is from an unknown manufacturer,
it is nearly identical to Green Galore and has a slight texture to it.
Thanks for looking =)
