First, so sorry that this is going up late. Not sure where my head was this week. Anyways, this week's theme over at Flutterby Challenges is to create a sweet little creation for love. It can be for a wedding, anniversary, or just a good generic love. Make sure to include either a butterfly or fairy on your creation as well. I went with the anniversary theme and kept my simple (of course, lol). I've seen this sketch around and thought I would try it out as I really liked what I have seen. To add some texture and interest to the card since I decided to stick with the elegant white and black, I cut the layered white to the size I wanted and embossed it with a Tim Holtz damask folder. But before I embossed, I coated one side (the side that pushes into the paper) with versamark ink. This way it gave a nice coating of something for some perfect pearls, perfect pearl to adhere to. Love how the end result was a soft sheen. I added some perfect pearl spray to black cardstock and dried before I punched out the Martha Stewart butterflies (love, love, love this punch). Simple and elegant I think!
