Quick and easy card set

Along with the cards I’ve shown you, I gave Pickle’s teachers a set of four cards to use themselves. I decided to do a One Sheet Wonder set that I stumbled across a while back by Julee Tilman and you can find the directions on her blog. I wish I would have gone back and checked out her examples before making mine… I think that some embossing and matting would have been great.

I have to say, you can’t beat making eight cards out of such a small amount of paper, without tons of extra scraps left over like normal.
In making these I used half a 12 x 12  More Mimi SWIC patterned paper, four sheets of brown CS for bases and then scraps of kraft and white CS from my scrap bin.

For the first card I stamped my butterfly in Bordeaux Palette ink sponged everything in Burnt Umber and added some brads.



For the second card I stamped a butterfly in New Canvas on the base, added some scor-bug on the strip and colored the other butterfly with Prisma Color pencils and highlighted with glitter pen.



For the third card I added some piercing to some corners and stamped in New Canvas and Burnt Umber palette.



For the last card I stamped with Burnt Umber and Bordeaux together, added some glitter pen to the butterfly and tied on some tan floss.




Thanks for stopping by and taking a look! Please let me know what you think! I hope that you have a wonderful week.
