You're One of a Kind!

Happy Wednesday!  I have a card to share today using the new inspiration from The Card Concept Challenge.   

We have a new photo inspiration challenge starting today at The Card Concept!  This one is all about Beautiful Butterflies!  Hope you can join us and play along.

I was inspired by the textures, colors, and butterflies.  I  created a vintage inspired card.  I used textures, warm tones, sponging, and embossing to create my card. 

I started with some Autumn Rose card stock.  I sponged autumn rose, scarlet jewel, and true black ink around the edges.  I blended by sponging some versamark ink over.  I embossed the card stock using Tim Holtz Kaleidescope Texture Fades Embossing Folder.  I inked the edges fading into the middle of the card stock again using the same colors of inks listed above.  I added foam tape to the back and adhered it to a top folding Autumn Rose card stock base.  

For the butterfly, I started with some select white card stock.  I stamped the white panel with MFT Romantic Script background using versamark and heat embossed with gold embossing powder.  I used a retired MFT layered butterfly die set from my stash.  I added gold pearls to the center of my butterfly.

For the sentiment, I used Simon Says Stamps Tiny Words stamp set.  I stamped the sentiment using Scarlet Jewel ink.  I die cut the sentiment using  Honey Bee Stamps Sentiment Banners.  I finished my card with a few clear sequins.

I am also playing along with The House That Stamps Built
