AAA Cards Challenge #224 Colour Scheme + Dots or Spots

 


This fortnight we have a colour scheme, meaning use what you see in the badge, for me that was the minty background, pink gloves and yellow spray bottle, quite challenging too, this is my third card attempt, I trashed the first two.

The optional twist of Dots and or spots was chosen by Neil.

For my card I stamped the butterflies and sentiment from Technique Tuesday (Butterflies silhouettes) with Distress inks : Cracked pistachio, Mustard seeds and Picked Raspberry. the spots are from Nellie Snellen (txcs007).

For more information or to play along the AAA Cards Challenge, see this.

I made the butterfly card a  long time ago, but as time passed I started disliking it more and more, not sure why as it's a great card, but I thought about it for a while and came up with another couple of ideas: 

One with the Katzelkraft's Les Monstres des Carpates (Carpathian Monsters) But I saw bugs. I made a similar card before but I stamped the monsters with Versafine ink, masked them where needed, then dried it with the heat gun and stamped the dots from and Sentiment from Happy Little Stampers (Mix Mash) with the colors from the Challenge.



My third card used the Nellie Snellen Textures stamp (TXCS011) I stamped it repeadly across the cardbase on the side masked to get a straightline.
I've used the same dots  and Sentiment from Happy Little Stampers (Mix Mash) with the colors from the Challenge.
