Happy Friday! Friday means Bloggers' Challenge! This week we had to pick one of our own cards that we made in the past and change 2 elements to make a new card.
But before I continue with my cards, we have a winner from yesterday. The number picked was 3 so Carol G, you are the winner! I'll send yesterday's card out right away! Continue to read for today's chance to win!
Back to my card...I chose a Stamp Camp card that we made last December for my layout. I changed the colors and stamp set. Here's the "old" card.
Following the same layout, here is my "new" card.
I used the Urban Oasis Designer Series Paper (which is part of the "Manhattan" collection) for both panels. On the smaller panel, I just cut the DSP so that the silhouettes of the flowers would be in the focal area. I stamped the "thank you" from the Curly Label Punch Box on Kraft card stock and hand cut it out. That way I could punch the Curly Label from Basic Black and have the perfect layer. The butterflies, stamped with Baja Breeze and Kiwi Kiss on Kraft, are from Dreams du Jour.
To win this card (just the 2nd one), just a leave a comment (a nice one, lol!) and your name will be in the running (U.S. residents only, please). I'll announce a winner tomorrow and have another card to give away.
One more important item...I FINALLY have my Pop Up Card Class designed and ready to show. Check back a little later today and I'll have all 4 projects to show you. Remember card kits will be available. I even have a little deal for you!
Card Details:
Stamp Sets: Curly Label, Dreams du Jour
Inks: Basic Black, Baja Breeze, Kiwi Kiss
Card Stock: Kraft, Basic Black, Urban Oasis DSP
Accessories: Curly Label Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals
Thanks for the visit! Be sure to check back later!
Gorgeous card Sheryl. Love the Kiwi Kiss with the Kraft. Your little butterflies are so sweet fluttering across the card. Nice job...

Wow Sheryl! Both of the cards are gorgeous. That Urban Oasis paper sure has grown on me. I just love the SU DSP. I'm really bad at picking colors and the paper really helps me. Thanks for sharing your beautiful creations and have a wonderful weekend!

Wow, I love the new Urban Oasis card! So pretty! What a great idea on layering that Curly Label punch too!

Wonderful cards. I like how you used the same sketch for both cards and they are so different from each other. I love how you used a portion of the DP on the new card and added the butterflies to the image. I have that DP so I may have to "case" your idea now!

Again I say I've GOT to try to make this card! At this rate I'll be stamping all month who needs a clean house anyway. (LOL)

I love how the patterned paper is the backdrop for the butterflies. No other stamping necessary. Very nice!!
