Power Poppy ~ Sunset Sway

Hello Friends! There's a newly remixed digi in the Power Poppy shop today. I know I say this all the time but, this one is a beauty! Marcella has combined some of my favorite things and I am so excited to share this with you. This set is called Sunset Sway and it's available for immediate download, ready to be added to your instant garden. Take a look....


Gorgeous, right? The set comes with this beautiful floral display of tulips and anemones. You get two. One with the butterfly and one without. Who doesn't love a butterfly, though? And, you also get a wonderful sentiment.

Here is what I did with this set...please click on the photo to enlarge it.


I printed it onto smooth white card stock and colored it with colored pencils. I used Polychromos and Prismacolors. I like combining the two, they play nicely together. I printed an extra image so I could color and fussy cut the butterfly. I just used the wings. I wanted to add a little extra something to the card, so I popped the wings up with dimensional adhesive.I also gave the wings some sparkle with a Clear Wink of Stella glitter brush. The "sweet friend"greeting is from a Power Poppy clear stamp set called, Go Wild.

After I die cut the image, I gave it a light dusting around the edges with Antique Linen Distress ink, I then matted it with  Neenah Desert Storm card stock and adhered it with foam tape onto my card base. I am love with gingham and this background paper I used is from the Petals and Wings collection from Gina K Designs. I just love the color and it pairs so well with the Kraft tone of the Desert Storm.

Here's the inside panel for the card...


I used a sentiment from Gladioli, another digital set from Power Poppy. I cropped out the butterfly and changed the color to a pale gray so I can still write a message over top.


And that's all I have for you today. Please take a moment to buzz over to the Power Poppy blog to see what my team mates have created with this sweet set.

Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate the visit.


Blessings~

Your card is absolutely delightful and charming, Barb. I adore how you colored it in and added the dimension on the butterly. Also like the dew drop bling you add on the flower, too. ;) I adore the gingham and the twine. I also really like your addition of the image on the inside, only lighter. Adds a wonderful touch. Your style of cardmaking is fabulous. There is a timelessness to what you create that I just adore. Thank you for sharing! Hugs!
