A Summer Party!

It's time for a new Party Time Tuesday challenge! The theme for this week is Summer Birthday! We have 2 Cute Rubber Stamps and iCopic sponsoring us this week - what a treat! I got to play with the Butterfly Garden Digital Stamp Image by Heidi Schwoerer and here is what I came up with:
I used a Cosmo Cricket paper from the Pixie-Licious collection, American Crafts cardstock, AdornIt mini alphas, Offray ribbon, EK success scallop edge punch, WRMK aqua floss, DMC white floss. Unknown: felt flowers and buttons. The window was cut with a Coluzzle template and the stitching around the window was pierced with a Crafter's Workshop template. Here is a closeup look inside:
I printed the digi directly on the card base before scoring. To color the image I used ZIG markers and Sakura pens, then I added Glossy Accents to the head and body, and Dimond Stickles to the wings.The pens bled into the Stickles, but I liked the effect.

I hope you can join the Party this week!

Thanks for stopping by!
