Fly Butterfly

Today I want to share "Fly Butterfly" from Ching-Chui Kuik.

I am a huge fan of her art. And when I can, I color my favorite stamps

from CCK! 

Ofcourse you can purchase this gorgeous stamp or digi at
Sweet Pea Rubber Stamp

I had this gorgeous paperpad from Prima Marketing

"Fairy Rhymes"

I got this from a dear friend, so I had to make

a gorgeous project.

The colors I had to combine with the papers.

Useally I just color and than combine my papers.

(silly is'nt it?)

I colored my Fairy butterfly with my distresspads.

As a base card, I've used Kraft.

In the corners I added the gorgeous dies from Leane.

I just love the way that it turned out to be.

The flowers where made from Magnolia Doohickeys Peonies and the

small ones are also Magnolia Doohickeys mini Helleborus. 

I just cut them out from the Prima papers.

In the center of the flower, I added a flatback pearl.

I find this card a little Romantic... don't you think?

Butterfly Magical Day

Hi Folks,

I decided to play with an older ching-chou kuik fantasy image for my card. It's so hard to choose a Sweet Pea Stamp image and I find that at times I tend to forget to spread the love :-).

This is Fly Butterfly, part of Plate #21 and she is colored with copics. This time I chose the papers first - woohoo....it did help when it came to assembling my card.

The sentiment is from Plate #21. The flower is a mish-mash of scrap pieces. Leaves are grunge paper, the flower is chipboard and the rose bud is satin....

I'm not sure if you can see the shimmer on the chipboard flower, but I sprayed it with Smooch. I used some glitter pens to add some sparkle to the image.

I hope you enjoyed her. She was so very therapeutic to color, and I didn't even mention any mistakes!

Don't forget to check out the Sweet Pea Stamps store..... always great specials and don't forget about sending us your Sweet Pea Stamps creations.

Two Beauties for a Couple New Initiates!

A friend of mine's daughter is getting initiated soon and asked me to help her out with a couple cards! One is for her daughter and the other her big sis. I am really pleased with how they turned out. Their sorority colors are red and hunter green....so needless to say I wasn't really inspired to work with those. They attend Kansas State and the University colors are purple and silver. This was a much more appealing color palette for me...although I'm a University of Kansas Jayhawk fan and my wardrobe is red and blue!!!! I hope the girls like them!
