The inks I used are Altenew Blush and VersaMagic Oasis Green. The cardstock is PTI Soft Stone. I used a gold metallic pen to highlight the dots on the vase and randomly stamped little splatters using gold metallic watercolor. You can see the shimmer in my IG video.
I stamped the outline image in Versafine Clair Nocturne and used Altenew Blush Rose, Raspberry Sunset, Sagestone and Caribbean Sky for the color. I stamped the water 3 times to get a slightly larger area colored. The sentiment is from the same set. I splattered black ink and added matching enamel dots. Now I want to make another card with this fun set!
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
My final card was made with the rest of my PFS butterflies that weren't used for the card in my last post. The gold embossed Small Butterflies were stenciled with MFT Peach Bellini and PTI Tropical Teal. 
I cut off an inch of the card front and attached matching colored strips to the inside of the card. The splatters were made with an old IO background stamp using the same inks and the butterflies were glued only in the middle. 
The sentiment is from PFS Sweet Friend Floral. I'm entering PFS February Challenge and Color Hues Peach & Teal.
WOW - gorgeous cards Greta. Love them all. Your first one is so elegant. Love the gorgeous florals in the middle one and those butterflies are stunning.
ReplyDeleteThree more lovely cards Greta, the first is as you rightly say a lovely colour palette, maybe the Butterfly one just pips it for me.

They're all gorgeous, Greta! I saw the one for Color Hues on IG but didn't comment because I was waiting to see if it showed up here. So glad it did! The cardstock strips are a fantastic design element and one I need to remember, and your pretty butterflies are so lovely! Thanks for joining us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteOf course, I could have commented on IG as well, but my intent was to go back and tell you it was a perfect card for the Color Hues Challenge if it didn't show up in our gallery.
ReplyDeleteAmazing and beautiful cards, Greta! I especially love the Color Hues card - those butterflies and soft colors are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful trio of cards, Greta. I especially love the colour combination on the last card.

Three really lovely cards, but I think I have a favourite and that is the middle one. Love the look of that vase with its loose flowers. I hadn't realised Stamplorations was back either, so thanks for that xx
ReplyDeleteYour butterflies are so pretty Greta, the gold embossing works so well with the Color Hues colours. Thanks for joining in. :)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you kept the butterflies out and made another fabulous card. I love how you added the strips of paper in your layout. Thanks again for joining us at Color Hues.
ReplyDeleteThree wonderful cards, Greta! Your vases of blooms are lovely and your butterflies are delightful!
ReplyDeleteThree beautiful and delicate cards, all of which I absolutely love. It's great that you used up scraps for the third card.
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy - love all three cards, Greta! Especially love the overlapping butterfly edge on card three!!
ReplyDeleteGreta you rocked both challenges. Always nice when a stamp set provides the solid color piece. Your butterflies are so dainty and pretty lovingthe two color strips.
ReplyDeleteLove your Layered Vase card! The splattering adds movement and interest to the card. Thanks for sharing with us at STAMPlorations.
ReplyDeleteI love both versions of your butterfly cards, Greta! They are so pretty in the soft shades of peach and teal! Thanks for sharing them with us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeletePretty set of cards, Greta. The second one is so striking with that gorgeous image!
