Butterfly Smiles

Hey Everyone! I'm packing and getting ready for vacation but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to make a card for this week's Hero Arts Sketch Challenge! This card is based on Sketch #3. I just got a Silhouette SD for my birthday a few days ago. I almost fell over when I opened the box from my husband. It was the BEST surprise EVER!


Materials:
Stamps: Hero Arts Heart Winged Butterfly, Happy Hello, Cloud Design Block
Paper: Core'dinations, PTI
Ink: Memoried Black Dye
Other: Hero Arts clear buttons, Silhouette Die Cut

We leave in just a few hours. Eeek! There are a lot of fun things happening over at Caardvards in the next couple of weeks! I have some autoposts set up so be sure to check in!

The release is another knock out hit! Each stamp set is amazing! Today I'm featuring Cross My Heart and I sneaked in a few of the other sets too! ;) I started my card by die cutting the stitched index card . Then I cut out the window  which is designed to open. (cool, right?) I wanted a frame for my window so I die cut the window again and trimmed the side before adhering it to my index base. Then I backed my window with some cloud patterned paper for my outside sky. Next I stamped and die cut the cats from Purrfect Pair. I have had SO much fun with these cats. After adhering to cats to the window sill, I stamped and fussy cut the heart balloon. I tied some black floss around the balloon and adhere it to the kitten's paw. Finally, I stamped my sentiment.
