Finally tried Beate's Sketch Challenge

I normally check out Beate John's blog daily and have been wanting to particpate in her weekend sketch challenge for awhile now.  I saw the sketch for this weekend and the creative juices started flowing!!  Here is a link to her blog.  Here is my card using her sketch.

I used the Dazzling Diamond Dust technique for my main image.  I wanted to get the Groovy Guava and Ruby Red colors onto my butterfly so I inked the stamp with Groovy Guava and then using my Ruby Red marker, I went over parts of the image and then stamped it onto my Very Vanilla Cardstock.  The Dazzling Diamonds Technique is done by smashing your VersaMark pad over the whole piece of cardstock, apply Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder and heat set the whole thing.  Pretty, isn't it.  This is a square card that I cut at 5 1/2" x 11".

Supplies Used:  Garden Whimsy & Petals Jumbo Wheel; River Rock, Very Vanilla, Ruby Red Cardstock & Ginger Blossom Designer Series Paper; Groovy Guava Classic Ink Pad, Ruby Red Stampin' Write Marker, Versamark, Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Gold Brads.

I have lots more projects to share the rest of the week.  Plus a tutorial for the Card of the Week on Wednesday.  Here is a teaser!  Have you ever made a one-layer card?  I will let you ponder that question!!  LOL  Talk to you later.

Your card is gorgeous. I love the colors, all the dazzle and how you used the paper to make a dotted border! Awesome!

Love this card - and what a great way to get two colors on that stamp. I'm going to borrow that idea!! Thanks for the great inspiration.

WOW! What a very very pretty card! I love the technique you used on your butterfly panel and how you added the second colour to your stamp. I never would have thought of that!
