Happy Thursday! Today I have three cards to share. I would be able to share two more cards from my de-hoarding project, but I'll better post them tomorrow... Anyway, here are three cards I made for the Hero Arts June "Summer, 4th of July, Color Layering" challenge:
This first card felt like cheating! Vinnie Pearce's papers are so beautiful - I only resized and printed this and added my butterfly and the pearls. The paper is from the digi-kit "Art Papers II". Gorgeous and dramatic, isn't it? The butterfly is from my beloved Hero Arts set "Antique Engravings" and I colored it with copics. My second card uses the color layering technique. I love to combine pink with brown. And I love butterflies and the Hero Arts Old Letter Writing stamp!! This technique is so much fun. Just ink up the stamps and stamp. And then again and again... Ha.
The patterned paper and the brad are from Melody Ross's Artsy Urban Collection for GCD Studios. The seambinding is dyed with the same ink I used for stamping.
Have a beautiful and sunny day! Thanks for visiting :)
Hugs,
Vanessa
