Bugs and Butterflies Blog Hop with Scrap'n Stamp

We are hopping over on the Scrap'n Stamp blog today, which is what I made this card for. The name of our hop is Bugs and Butterflies, so be prepared to see some beautiful butterflies/bugs.


One lucky winner will win a $50.00 gift card to the Scrap'n Stamp store. All you have to do for your chance to win is leave a comment on the makers card posts. They would appreciate this.

The giveaway closes April 23rd, 2024, at Midnight EST. The winner will be chosen randomly and posted here on the Scrap ‘N Stamp blog April 30th, 2024.

Now, back to my card.
For my card I used Sizzix Butterflies Mini. My background is done using distress oxide inks in Faded Jeans and Stormy Sky for a smooshed background. I added Visible Image Mesh ellaneous images for interest. 

The butterflies I coloured using Copic markers as follows: B04, B16, Y08, Y06, Y35 and YR07. The background is coloured using B39.

I then attached the card background to my Neenah cardbase. To my design I added Metallic Confetti and Black Magic confetti. 

I also bent the butterflies at the body to lift the wings for further dimension.

This style of card is unusual for me to make, but I certainly did enjoy this change of pace. Once finished with the details on the card front I turned my attention to the inside of the card which I kept simple.

Using the same inks I did another smooshed background, and stamped a sentiment using VersaFine Clair ink in Twilight and added another butterfly that I had made.

Thank you for visiting with me today. Next up on the hop is Allison. Following is the full list for those participating in today's hop.

  13. Hi Kia, this is my first time to your blog. I really like your style. I love the different visual elements you stamped on the background. The colorful butterflies just make me smile. I also like how you bent the wings up for dimensions. I always decorate the inside of my cards and I like the idea of smooshing ink on the inside too. I am looking forward to seeing what you make next.
