Another quick post!
Simple math to explain how I arrived at my card:
Muse #134, showcasing Anita's gorgeous embossed and water-coloured circles +
TIME OUT Challenge #40~Case Tracey, with a stunning card that is sponging and floral vellum luscious +
Addicted to CAS #73~Dream, which happens to be in a sentiment that needs some TLC
A STAMPlorations circle stencil, sponged with distress inks (inspired by Anita, of course), with a vellum butterfly (my translation of Tracy's flowers) and a 'dream' sentiment from Neat & Tangled...
Apologies for the annoying shadows on the butterfly...it is vellum, with a pretty shimmery silver foil paper body...
NOTE: Thrilled and delighted to be one of three Honorable Mentions at MUSE. THANK YOU!
Thank you, Anita, Tracey and the Addicted to CAS team: no way would I have arrived at this card on my own! I like it...really x really like it!
Thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments add sparkle to my day!
Hugs,
