Creative Nugget: Diluted Oxide inks were used to add a wash of color to the corner of the card. This was over stamped with Leafy Flourish and Typewriter Text backgrounds and splattered with some black acrylic paint. Strips of Washi tape were adhered to the card front off center. The Majestic Monarch butterfly was embossed over strips of the same Washi tape and cut with the coordinating Monarch Die. The sentiment from the Keep in Touch, Too set was stamped on a banner and added to the card. Tiny Sparkles, metallic threads and twine were added to finish the card. All of the stamps used are available at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.
