Welcome!
Today I've got a few cards in store for you ...
The first card was created for the My Mind's Eye feminine/masculine challenge. The challenge was to use something masculine on a feminine card (or vise versa).
I chose to create a masculine card but use jewels to embellish it (something that some men might argue is a little girly :)
This uses the MME Follow Your Heart collection ... very fun paper ... I loved the kites and just had to cut some out and pop them up for some extra dimension!
Card #2 that I am sharing today was created for the the Love to Create Challenge Blog's sentiment challenge and the Gingham challenge over at Moxie Fab World.
I used different shaped butterflies and a nice wooden button with a twine bow for that simple embellishment. You'll also notice some subtle zig zag stitching around the top corners of the card.
And this is my take on the sketch:
I've used stitching and wide grey ribbon to add various textures ... and the sweet sentiment ("You are my sunshine") inspired my sun burst with a button in the centre.
Thanks for checking in today ... I hope you've been inspired!
Perfectly beautiful cards! Love the idea behind that challenge too!
