Clean & Simple FTL#141

As I mentioned in the previous post, I have been on a bit of a roll today...having fun playing with a few different things.

I made this card below based on the Clean and Simple FTL#141 Sketch.

Again its a simple style. You probably can't see it on the photo above, but I've used Crystal Effects and some Dazzling Diamonds on the Butterfly to give it a bit of a lift and a bit of bling! I've taken a closer photo below in the hopes of capturing the effect. Dazzling Diamonds are my new favourite thing to play with at the moment!

JAI #68

I'm on a roll again with my cards and have made a couple today. This one is for the Just Add Ink Challenge #68. If you haven't done so before, check out this great challenge site...not only for challenges but also for wonderful inspiration and ideas!

Anyway, this week at Just Add Ink it is a colour challenge...

I loved the look of these colours together when I saw it so couldn't resist playing along this week. Plus it uses two of my all time favourite colours...Pear Pizzazz and Baja Breeze!

So here is what I came up with...

This photo is a little dark! I was really happy with how this card turned out...simple, but effective. You probably can't see, but on the little flowers on the butterfly wings, I have stuck the tiny pearls in the middle of each and it gives the card a bit more interest and dimension!
