Here is another card with this weekend’s sketch. This time I went the other way and made a girly, girl card.

The card base is a 5 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ piece of Rose Red cardstock.

Next is a 5″ Pretty in pink square, stamped with Aida background and sponged around the edges.

The bottom two corners were punched with the ticket corner punch.

The horizontal layer is a 2 1/4″ x 4 3/4″ piece of Petals & Paisley designer paper. I added a shimmery white scallop border on top. I had made it with my corner rounder. Again, the bottom two corners were trimmed with the ticket corner punch.

The vertical layer is a piece from the retired Love me Designer paper, layered on a piece of shimmery white cardstock. I added a strip of rose red ribbon from the Fairy Tail Ribbon Originals and tied white taffeta ribbon over that. Next I used a hat pin from the Pretties kit for the first time. Julia’s Ways to use it challenge this week was to use pins on your project.

For the main image I stamped the big butterfly from Garden Whimsy in Rose Red on Shimmery white cardstock twice. One I kept for my main panel, the other I cut out, layered over the main panel and added Dazzling Diamond glitter to. I punched the left two corners of the main panel with the ticket corner punch and added the solid little circle row from All in a Row around the edges of that panel. I layered it on Rose Red cardstock and adhered it just a tad under the ribbon.

I stamped the saying from Holidays & Wishes on Shimmery white cardstock, cut it down so it would fit in the Window word punch and punched the left edge with it. Last I added a little flower and clear jewel from the Pretties kit over the saying.
