Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge #601 Midsummer Blues, Memory box

Hi Everyone!

I am here to introduce a new challenge at the fantastic Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

This week's challenge is called: Midsummer Blues
The team is showcasing products from: Memory box

And this is my take:





I started by making a cardbase from blue cardstock and then inked a panel the same size as the base. I inked it from dark to light before cutting my floral frame from it. I then cut my butterflies from white cardstock which I then adhered to vellum and trimmed. Last I decorated with some copiccolored mini flowers and some applegreen nuvo drops.


My box with my latest order made it just in time so I could make a card using the beautiful new Cottage Meadow Paper Pad.
