I used The Rubber Cafe's Large Trailing Butterflies and several colors of ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon's April Monthly Ribbon Club assortment for my card today.

I stamped the image twice on Discount Card Stock's Brilliant White, so I could pop a few butterflies, then colored them with Copic markers. 

The other papers are Banana Split and Nautical Blue, also from Discount Card Stock. After assembling my card, I added some pretty bling from Want2Scrap.

This is what the awesome April club assortment looks like.

Art Glitter Design Team 2012 Audition card

Tweet

Hello Everyone!  

I created the card above for my design team audition for Art Glitter.

As always, I used elements from several of my other design teams to so this is really a multi DT card! :)

I used the "Large Trailing Butterflies" stamp that The Rubber Cafe sent me to play with. 

THANK YOU RUBBER CAFE!  :)

I stamped the image on to acetate with black StazOn, then used a clear gloss medium to adhere the gorgeous Art Institute glitters. I used their Ultra Fine Transparent's in Pretty Pink, Hibiscus, Mystery, Fresh Green, and Berren. After allowing some dry time, I went over the glitter and glaze with some gesso to make the butterflies opaque. 

I cut a frame from The Robin's Nest's - Terrific Teal chipboard and attached it to the acetate piece with Helmar's 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. I used Helmar ZapDots to lift it up from the card front.  I then added some pretty pretty bling with the Pink Rhinestones and Nestabling Labels One Pink Rhinestones from Want2Scrap.

The cardstocks used are Brilliant White and Starburst Metallic from Discount Card Stock.

The beautiful Satin Ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon. 

Thanks so much for dropping by!

Wish me luck!  :)
