Good Saturday morning my fellow stampers. How has everyone’s weekend started off? Hope you have some fun activities planned, or maybe just have a relaxing day ahead.

For today’s card I combined the Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Bundle with the new Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper. Here’s my card for today.

My colors are from Color Throwdown Challenge #632. Beautiful spring combo I think.

I also played along with The Spot Inspiration Photo Challenge #152.

I started by adhering a panel of the Butterfly Bijou DSP to a Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the largest succulent image, the flowerpot image and the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Simply Succulents Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using the Potted Succulents Dies.

I adhered the flowerpot to the card front using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the succulents above the flowerpot using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the panel of butterflies out of the Butterfly Bijou DSP using the Brilliant Wings Dies and adhered one of the small butterflies to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the butterfly and card front.

I cut a Mint Macaron mat for the sentiment using the Potted Succulents Dies and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the sentiment to the mat using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Simply Succulents stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the medium succulent image from the Simply Succulent stamp set in Tuxedo Black ink in the corners of the panel and colored them in using my Mint Macaron and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered another one of the butterflies from the Butterfly Bijou DSP next to the sentiment using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the Basic White panel to a So Saffron mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Calypso Coral card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Butterfly Bijou DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.
