HI All
I haven't crafted much for a while but yesterday I saw the photo at The Card Concept and loved the colours of the butterfly and how it seems to dominate the photo-I took this as my inspiration to make this Easter card:
I had been looking through Pinterest for ideas for Easter cards and saw this card from Sue and had a light bulb moment! Thanks for the inspiration Sue x
I stamped the image from Visible Images and then die cut the cross from Verve from this image. (Verve is sadly no longer open).
I then cut another cross from purple fun foam and used this to layer up the cross for dimension. I had added foam pads to the yellow base so there is quite a lot of dimension here but think it is needed to show the cross properly.
This is quite a different Easter card but I think still shows the wonder of Easter with a touch of the arty feel!
Have a good day x
For the The Card Concept-I would say my card is Clean and Layered.
I will also enter it into Day of the Month Card Club-Butterfly Day-Happy 2nd Birthday
Wow .... this is stunning Sandie. The vibrancy of the purple looks fabulous and the dimension form the cross looks so striking. A creative way to use the arty butterfly stamp and the die cut cross and I love it x.
