Paper Players Challenge 52 CAS Sketch



Another great challenge today from the Paper Players!  A Clean and Simple (CAS) Sketch....sometimes the easiest sketches can be the most challenging!  I always feel like I should do more!  But I love the way this came out.


Melon Mambo!  I used the new Letterpress Fan for the background with Melon Mambo craft ink.  Love this!
For the main focal image, I stamped the Flourish Stamp using Melon Mambo craft ink on Whisper White,  Then I stamped the butterfly in Melon Mambo and used the KISS technique with the Flourish stamp in Whisper White craft ink.


Here is a closeup of how it looks!  I added a few pearls and my old standby, Teeny TIny wishes.

Play along with us!  We will love to see what you come up with!

stamps:  Fine Flourish, Butterfly, Teeny Tiny Wishes
ink:  Melon Mambo craft ink, Whisper White craft ink
tools:  Fan Letterpress, word window punch
embellishment:  pearls

  5. I love how you kissed the butterfly with the same flourish from the focal piece, Lauri. We don't have the letterpress here in Aus yet, but it gives an amazing look to your background.
