Sketch Saturday - Beauty Abounds

For today’s Sketch Challenge I used the Beauty Abounds Stamp Set. It has a large floral design that worked perfectly for this sketch.

The Sketch is from the CAS(E) this Sketch #326 from Splitcoaststampers

CAS(E) this Sketch #326

Tips & Instructions:

• Highland Heather Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, scored at 4 1/4

• Pineapple Punch Layer - 5 1/8 x 3 7/8

• Whisper White Layer - 5 x 3 3/4

• Stamp image with Black Ink, then stamp circle images with Highland Heather Ink

• Color using Stampin’ Blends - Light Granny Apple Green, Dark Pineapple Punch, Light Balmy Blue

• Cut piece of Whisper White with small Rectangle Stitched Die and stamp sentiment (from Butterfly Gala) with Black Ink. Stamp and cut small butterfly and adhere to sentiment.

• Adhere layers and then adhere sentiment with Dimensionals

• Add rhinestones to flower centers and butterfly

For the inside I stamped and colored to match the card front and added a butterfly on top. I covered the large butterfly in the Butterfly Wishes Stamp with some Post-It Note and inked it up, then removed the Post-It Note before stamping. This prevents getting ink on the large butterfly.
