Happy First Day of the Week! I hope you are having a great weekend :)
It's time for a new colour challenge over at
Sunday Stamps...this time it's a monochromatic scheme...
...and here is my Design Team project:
I began building this project on a
Basic Gray card base. The background layer is also
Basic Gray and is embossed using the
Elegant Dots TIEF. The two pieces of DSP are from the
Timeless Elegance pack...so many gorgeous patterns to love in there! To stamp the butterfly, I used the large solid butterfly image from the
Watercolor Wing set in
Smoky Slate ink. Then I stamped the detail image in Basic Gray (retired) and finally I heat embossed the border in
silver. The finished butterfly was die-cut using the
Bold Butterfly Framelits. I layered the die-cut butterfly on a
silver metallic doily.
The sentiment, from the
Butterfly Basics stamp set, is heat embossed in Smoky Slate (retired) embossing powder on a strip of
Basic Gray card stock. I added some
pearls to the sentiment strip as well as the body of the butterfly, and used some
silver satin ribbon for added texure and shine.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment, from the
Butterfly Basics set, in
Smoky Slate ink. The small butterfly was stamped using
Smoky Slate ink for the solid image, Basic Gray for the border and I heat embossed the detail in
silver. This one was die-cut using the
Butterflies Thinlits. Once again, I added a few
pearls reminiscent of the front of the card.
This monochromatic, neutral colour scheme is super versatile. Be sure to check out the other
Design Team members' creations and then give it a go yourself. Happy stamping!
