Hi! Welcome to the Crate Paper/ Cardmaker Blog Hop. Thanks for stopping by. You should have arrived here from
Christine Okken's blog. If not, be sure to head back to the
Cardmaker Magazine blog so you won't miss any of the fun! I'm really excited to be participating. Today I have a card, that I made with the beautiful Maggie Holmes line, to share with you.
I'm a huge fan of chipboard and die cuts. For this card, I started with a cream colored base. I layered several of the die cuts, from the ephemera pack, to use as a backdrop for my butterfly.
Next, I added a clothespin to the butterfly. I removed the decorative accent from one of the bobby pins and added it to the clothespin. A couple of gems finished things off. I attached this to my layered die cuts.
I love the canvas frames in this line. I decided to cut my sentiment from one of them and adhered it below the butterfly.
My card is simple, yet I think it packs a lot in for a great effect.
Now for the fun part. Be sure to leave a comment.
Crate Paper will be hosting a giveaway of $40 worth of product from the Maggie Holmes line!
Time to hop on over to the next blog. You'll be heading to see what
Becky Cowley has created.
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day. :)
