Pretty little studio challenge & DT call


Hey and Happy MLK day
Today I want to share a card with you.

This card was inspired by the Pretty Little Studio "Think outside the box" inspirational challenge. Below is the photo of inspiration. You can go to their blog for more details (The DT projects are also kool) and there is 2 days left to enter the challenge.


Creative thought : So when I saw this picture I knew I want to incorporate the circle shapes of the dessert and the butterflies. Which is what you'll see in the pictures below.

Full image of card

Close Up - This is an Anita Be Stampin Image colored with Copic markers and I added some ice blue stickles. I used a Copic marker to go around the edge of the shape.

Close up - Embellishments used on this card are ice blue stickles, glitter puffy paint, white puffy paint, sparkly blue ribbon, butterfly cut out from Martha Stewart punch, recollection pop dots.

Also entering this card in The Paper Shelter Design Team Call.
This company creates some super cute digi images and would be so much fun to work with.
I just had to enter this call.
The deadline to enter is 1/24/2012.

Thanks for stopping by and have a scrap happy day and wish me luck.
