Now that I have some more inspiration from myself and The Brand Ambassadors. 

Card 1

This is a modern style one-layer CAS card using a Happy Birthday stencil. I used fossilized amber, wilted violet, barn door, rustic hinge distress oxides and Jet Black Archival ink. I embellished it with a few black half pearls.

Card 2

For the second card, I created a colorful background to showcase the pretty butterflies. I ink smooshed the distress inks directly onto a white panel. Then I created these pretty butterflies using Layering Bright butterflies and fussy cut out. I used sea glass, dust, midnight violet, buttercream, warm sunshine, evergreen, frayed leaf, pink diamond, raspberry and fresh peach Altenew inks. 

The sentiment is heat embossed using Opaque Bright white EP on a vellum die cut. And dazzled it with a few tiny crystal rhinestones.

Card 3

For this card, I used the Layering Organic Blooms stencil. I used sea glass, desert night, red royal, and pale tomato Altenew inks. The sentiment is from the Organic Blooms stamp set.

Card 4

For this card, I used the Organic Blooms stamp set to create my own background; it's a perfect stamp for the cards. 

. 

I used red royal, pale tomato, fresh peach, pinkalicious, pink diamond, evergreen, forest glacier, lavender fields, soft lilac and warm sunshine Altenew inks. And watercolored it for the soft touch. I added tiny dots all over the background from the same stamp set.

  White dots were added to the stigma using a Posca pen. The sentiment is from the same Stamp set

Card 5

This is a mixed-media style card. I used aged mahogany, saltwater taffy, walnut stain, vintage photo, fossilized amber, carved pumpkin, and barn door DI for the Primrose image. I fussy-cut the floral image and bent some leaves for more dimension. The background is created using a big polka dot stencil and background blocks Linear stamp set.

Card 6

For my last card, I showcased the Bright Butterflies clear stamp set. I stamped the cute tiny butterflies in various distress inks and fussy cut them all. I added a white sparkly circle and adhered all the butterflies on this circle. The sentiment is from the same set.
