one for Monday…
I made one quick card for Today’s challenges. This week is super busy so I may not have time for any more. It has been lots of fun, though, and tomorrow is the last day so check it out over at SCS if you can!
This card was made for Jeanne’s sketch and Michele’s challenge. It came together rather quickly, but I had to shift the center panel a bit to fit the butterfly on and the ribbon was added because the top right corner was pretty empty after that! I punched the slot punch a few times to get the hole wide enough for the ribbon. The flower was an image that was stamped repeatedly when a neighbor friend was visiting one day. I think it is by Hero Arts. I watercolored it with Twinkling H2O’s which I haven’t used for a while. They are so pretty…I need to use them more often! To see the shimmer I needed to lay it down to photograph it but the shimmer still didn’t show up very well in the pic. The bugs were stamped on shimmery paper and are on pop dots. When it was all said & done, I rather liked the blue/yellow/coral color combination.
