This month's PTI Blog Hop challenge is to gleam inspiration from the above photo and use it to create a project! I simply swoon over this color combination. Isn't it just lovely?
My card also fits the PTI Make It Monday challenge, which is to make a project with a handmade embellishment. If you would like to check out the challenge for yourself, you can do that here.
This card started with the gray wood stamped panel. Then I wanted to use a yellow butterfly to resemble the yellow ruffle pillow. I worked for a really long time trying to make it work. It just wasn't. So, the card made a major transformation. I decided to use a rejected stamped panel from my first June Blog Hop card and die cut a wine bottle tag out of it. I punched out circles and then backed the tag with a piece of yellow card stock so that the yellow would show through. I created my stacked butterfly ala Dawn McVey. Love how she does that!
Aside from the hole punch, A*Muse Ink, and some Copics, all supplies are by PTI.
Thanks ever so much for stopping by!
Very nice! I love how you added the yellow dots and gray to the background. I struggled with this challenge too and started and restarted a few times!
