Congrats......on your new home (Handmade card)

Hello guys
So today I have for you yet another very simple and easy to make card which took me 20 mins in all from start to finish.
I am putting my card up for the following challenges:
  1. Simon Says stamp Wednesday challenge - Anything Goes
  2. Butterfly Challenge #81 - K for key and V for vermillion
  3. Cute Card Thursday Challenge #484 - Anything Goes
  4. The Ribbon Girl July 2017 challenge - Anything Goes
  5. Word Art Wednesday Week #288-289-  Anything Goes
  6. CWS Challege #16 - Celebrate 
I have used a 220gsm Vermilion cardstock as the cardbase cut to standard A2 size. Then, I stamped my butterflies on a 270 gsm watercolor cardstock using Ripe Persimmon distress ink. The stamping was a little splotchy but I wasn't bothered too much as I desired that effect and I misted it with water rather than adding big drops of water and dabbed it with a tissue and everything kind of got smoothed. I fussy cut my butterflies out and kept them aside.
Now, the center frame is fussy cut from Forever and Always paper pack from ItsyBitsy. I then took an old key I had and traced it out on 270gsm cardstock and fussy cut it out too. I heat embossed this with Ranger Tinsel gold embossing powder and then tied a jute twine throught it. Assembled everything on a white card panel cut to 4"by 5 1/4" and added little vermilion watercolor sprinkles.
Finished my card with few sequins,, a small bow on the key and Congrats Sentiment on the outside and "......for your new home"on the inside (But I was in a hurry and forgot to take a picture.) with Memento tuxedo Black Dye ink
Simple and easy card.....I hope you like this.

  4. Now that is a terrific idea to trace round an old key. (A truly now why did'n't I think of that moment). I love how you have combined onto your card with the red butterflies. Thank you for fluttering into the butterfly garden. Hugs Mrs A.
