Thank You So Much!

Hello, friends! I have a card to share today playing along with a couple of blog challenges.

I started with white card stock. I ink blended PFS Regal Kiss ink on the top and bottom portion of the panel. I die cut the Curvy Leaves dies using white card stock. I added the leaves to the bottom edges of the ink blended panel. I die cut the Color Block Stripes die to create white stripes. I glued the pieces onto a white card stock panel and trimmed it to size to fit diagonally onto the ink blended panel with the leaves. I added some gold splatters using Starry Colors and an artist brush.

For the butterfly, I stamped the Small Butterflies stamp set using versamark ink and heat embossed using Brutus Monroe Gilded embossing powder. I die cut the panel of butterflies using the Small Butterflies die. This Small Butterflies stamp set is one piece. All the images are stamped at once. The die is one piece as well and cuts all of the butterflies with one pass through your diecutting machine. I chose to use only one butterfly. I used the Small Butterflies layering stencil set to ink blend more Regal Kiss ink. Where the ink is very soft, I removed most of the ink from my blending tool.

For the sentiment, I heat foiled using my Gemini Jr. Foilpress the Thanks So Much Hot Foil plate with polish brass foil. I die cut with the coordinating Thanks So Much die. I layered three die cut words together to created some stability as well as dimension. I added the elements to the card front. I added the completed panel to a top folding white card stock base using foam tape. I finished the card with a few metallic gold pearls.
