Painted Seasons with Botanical Butterfly
My card is created using the Painted Seasons Bundle. The Designer Series Paper is so pretty. This panel that I have used for this card is so cool and clean looking. It makes me think of a hot afternoon sitting in the cool parlor of an old house long ago. I remember it had a big ceiling fan that swirled around slowly but the coolness was divine on a hot summer day. The Happy Day greeting is from the Itty Bitty Greeting stamp set. I just can’t get away from that Itty Bitty, can I? Be it Itty Bitty Greetings or Itty Bitty Birthday!
My sketch design comes from Try Stamping On Tuesday.
My card base is Lemon Lime Twist with a Pool Party mat for the Painted Seasons DSP. The two different designs of the DSP make a good contrast. A Coastal Cabana- Granny Apple Green Reversible Ribbon is wrapped around the focal panel and tied in a bow. 
Three butterflies cut from a panel of Botanical Butterfly DSP are scattered on the focal panel and adhered with Glue Dots. The focal panel is adhered to the Pool Party mat then the panels are adhered to the card base.
The inside Whisper White sentiment panel is stamped in Call Me Clover ink using a stamp from the Cake Soriee stamp set. A flower is also stamped in Call Me Clover on the panel. The panel is matted on a panel of Pool Party card stock and adhered to the card base using Liquid Glue. It amazes me how the flower look once it has been added to the blog post it looks nothing like that in real time. I took several pictures and each one turned out with that effect.
Thanks for stopping by today. May you find encouragement and inspiration just a bit from my card. Have a blessed day

My card starts with a Poppy Parade card stock base. The card front is embossed using the Subtle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF). This is a rather easy card. I cut the flowers from a panel of the Painted Seasons Designer Series Paper (DSP). 
The strip down the left side is also cut from the reverse side of the flower panel. A tiny border of Call Me Clover card stock is added between the strip of maze DSP and the flowers. A vertical greeting is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink in the center of the maze strip. 
A flower is cut from the DSP and popped on the flower at the bottom of the panel of flowers. Several Basic Adhesive-Back Sequins are scattered over the Poppy Parade card base.
The inside sentiment panel is stamped in Grapefruit Grove and Call Me Clover ink with a flower from the Painted Seasons stamp set. A sequin is added to the center of the flower. The sentiment comes from the stamp set Humming Along and is stamped in Call Me Clover. The panel is trimmed on the right and left sides with a small strip of the maze DSP which is the reverse side of the flowers used on the front.
