Here is a card I made awhile back for a sketch challenge.  I can’t remember whose sketch challenge it was but I was happy with the way it turned out.  Now the Walk in the Park paper will be gone at the end of the month (Tuesday) but Great Friend will be in the new catalog - YIPPEE!!!

The card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4.  The patterned paper is layered onto a piece of basic grey.  I then took two strips of the cameo coral print from that pack and layered on top.  The buttons are from the button bouquet (which has sold old).  Since I have issues with ‘naked’ buttons, I tied a piece of the silver elastic cord (retired) in the centers.  It’s a little difficult to see but the white rectangular cardstock was run through the big shot on a SU texture plate then layered onto a piece of basic grey cardstock.  The butterflies were stamped in cameo coral and baja breeze (why…oh WHY do these in colors have to go????), cut out and silver elastic cord added for the bodies before attaching to the white.  For you was stamped in baja breeze, punched with the 1 1/4” circle punch then layered onto a 1 3/8” cameo coral circle before attaching.

With the new catalog just around the corner (and those of you who pre-ordered catalogs from me, they are ready for pick-up), I’m going to start posting new items on my blog so stay tuned!  Happy stampin’!
