Hi Stampers!
I love the
inspiration photo for this week’s Stampin’ Royalty SR168 Challenge and decided
to create a card again in the wee hours of the morning :-) I incorporated the soft pinks from this week's DD45 Dynamic Duos Challenge along with the Pals Paper Arts PPA155 Sketch Challenge. 
Again, if you have the chance, check out the
Design Team samples and other entries at each site- great job by all!
To make this “hybrid”
card:
Print an image of
the Swallowtail Stamp Brush Set from My Digital Studio (MDS) onto Whisper White
(re-size to fit the card) and color with Stampin’ Write markers in Pretty in
Pink, Regal Rose and Basic Black.
Carefully cut around the image and brush on Frost White Shimmer Paint to add a bit of iridescent shimmer to the wings :-)
Create the
background for the butterfly (I used a previously embossed piece of Whisper
White onto Pretty in Pink and Basic Black cardstock).
Layer the embossed
Regal Rose DSP (with the Big Shot™ and Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions™
Embossing Folder) onto Basic Black and add the layers of Designer Paper per the
sketch (I used retired Stampin’ Up! paper from over 10 years ago- trying to use
up my massive stash :-)).
Add the 5/8”
Pretty in Pink Satin Ribbon bow along with the layered sentiment (also printed
from MDS) and a few pearls to finish off the card.

Thanks again for stopping
by- I have a good friend that loves pink and think of her every time I create a card using any variation of pink :-).
Have a fabulous Monday and God Bless!!
