Encouragement Card for Damask Divas Blog Hop Using Clementine Paper Packet and Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

Hi fellow crafters!!  I hope everyone is having a great week with fun plans for the weekend.  It has been very hot in Southern California; but at least we aren't dealing with a hurricane like the southern states.
 
Welcome to our Damask Divas September blog hop; which starts September 1st.  If you came from Mandy's blog, you are in the right place.  If you arrived here and have just discovered our blog hop; please check the complete list at Damask Divas blog for blog hop participants.  There will be a giveaway with a drawing for those who register on our Damask Divas blog.
 
I used the sketch from Mojo Monday 256 for my card.  I love Clementine paper packet.  It is very colorful; but at least everything goes together when using the different patterned papers with CTMH products.  Here is my encouragement card that I created for a friend.

  15. Alright, I am stumped--how did you do the blue and orange butterfly? GORGEOUS! I really love how you make the insides of your cards match the outside. Beautiful work, Gloria!

    1. Hi Kigz. Nice to hear from you again. Thanks for your wonderful compliment. I made the butterfly from the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge pg 55, shift and then used the layer feature same page with shift to add the top using two of the same papers I used on the front. I noted this under the supplies list above. I also added the wonderful CTMH stardust glitter gel. You do have to shape the butterfly before adding the gel because it drys in the shape you have made. Hope that makes sense. The butterfly inside was made without the layer feature on top. Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a fabulous weekend!! Hugs, Gloria
