I chose my colors by FIRST choosing my designer paper. Then I chose the colors that match it. Here I used melon mambo and gumball green.
After I adhered the designer paper to the card base, I used the new ARTISAN LABEL PUNCH and punched thru both layers on the front of the card. I then punched a piece of melon mambo and glued it through the window I created with the punch.
I used the A ROUND ARRAY stamp set for the K IS FOR KINDNESS sentiment inside the punched out window and popped it up with a Stampin' Dimensional. (It was punched out with the 7/8" scallop circle punch) I made little shutters for the window with some more melon mambo.
Melon mambo ink on whisper white card stock and fussy cut out the butterfly image. I used Stampin' Dimensionals and then drew on the two antennae with a soft suede marker.
I saw this idea on Jason Kreiger's blog. Thanks JK. He goes by JK and I am also JK (Jennifer Kay) so I always check out his fun ideas on his blog. GREAT CARD!!
