This week's challenge at Freshly Made Sketches is pretty wide open---make a slimline card. I made my first slimline card earlier this month. Slimline cards are the rage right now, and I have just two dies for them. The first card used the Lawn Fawn Lift the Flap die and today's card uses a beautiful die from Pinkfresh Studio.
I started out by ink blending some Distress Inks on white card stock and then die cut it with the Braided Circle die. The butterflies from the Simon Says "Beautiful Butterflies" were colored with Copic markers. This was the set for the June Card Kit, and it's going to see a lot of use. It includes six beautiful butterfly images and twelve sentiments in a variety of lovely fonts.
For this card, however, I opted for a sentiment strip from Taylored Expressions. I fussy cut the butterflies since I don't have the dies. On the black card stock behind them, I scored three vertical lines which I could not get to show up in a photograph. I'm off to see what other ideas have shown up for the challenge.
