Today, I wanted to work with some papers and toys I picked up recently, and I love the result. I love working within one line of paper and embellishments! It really makes things come together quickly since everything coordinates perfectly! This time I chose Making Memories Reverie Noir collection. I think it's a wedding line, but the colours and design appealed to me enough to make me want to play!
Stamps: Fine Herbs (Flourishes)
Paper: Grey & Black cardstock, Paper Reverie DP (Making Memories)
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Black pearl flourish (Kaiser), Reverie Noir butterflies (Making Memories), Lace trim (Kaiser), black & white polka dot ribbon (American Crafts), W3 Copic Marker
The card is pretty simple, in fact I worked with Clean & Simple sketch #120, and it came together really quick! The patterned paper is Making Memories Reverie Noir and features both sides of the same sheet. I wrapped some Kaiser Lace trim around the seam. I cut apart a Kaiser black pearl flourish for the butterfly trail, and the butterflies themselves are Making Memories Noir Black, layered 3 high. I love these butterflies! There are 60 butterflies in the package; 4 each of 15 designs (front and back), and in 3 different sizes (20 of each size)!
Finally I tied it off with some black and white polkadot ribbon, and I tried to tone down the white dots by running my W3 Copic marker over them, and it turned out pretty good.
Clean and simple, quick and easy!
Have a fabulous day, and thanks for letting me share my creation with you!
