Hi, there!
I noticed that the colors over at Color Hues Challenge are blue and turquoise. I love those colors, so I decided to enter the card below in the challenge. I have to say that I was very inspired by Tracey's butterfly card, so pretty!
For my card, I started with a white card base and paired it with an embossed background from SU. I colored the butterflies from MFT with copics. I added Wink of Stella to them for shine. The sentiment is from pretty pink posh and I layered it three times with blue, turquoise, and white. White gems and a sheer ribbon for the final touch.
I hope you are having a good week. It does look a little like spring here with the sun shining and the temps in the 50's. My daffodils are peeking out and I can't wait for them to bloom. I'll have Easter cards to post soon for another day. Take care and thank you so much for taking the time to drop by today!
Hugs!
Your butterflies are striking in the lovely colours a dhow clever to incorporate all three colours in your built up sentiment. A lovely card.
ReplyDeleteYour blue & turquoise butterflies are SO pretty Maria and totally POP right off your beautifully embossed white background! I love how you triple die cut your sentiment using the challenge colors too...looks fabulous!! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at The Color Hues Challenge! Marcia (DT)
ReplyDeleteLove your card Maria, it is very springy looking! The color combo of the challenge is such pretty colors and they look fabulous on your gorgeous butterflies. Love the embossed background and the stacked sentiment in all three colors, very cool looking. The ribbon and gems finish off this beautiful card perfectly! No sun for us today, but Monday and Tuesday was gorgeous. My daffodils have already bloomed and soon on their way out. Never had them bloom this early before! Happy Spring! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteI love your card, Maria and love that you were inspired by Tracey's gorgeous butterfly card. Let me say yours is just as fabulous. I also like that you took the colors down to your sentiment as well. Thanks for playing at Color Hues and I certainly hope we will see you again soon. Take care!
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely color combination and looks so pretty on the butterflies. It is finally warmer today so spring must be coming. Trees are budding and robins are doing their thing on my patio. The rain today will wash that away!
ReplyDeleteLove how you've used the colours in the sentiment too and such pretty butterflies too. Thanks for being inspired by the Color Hues. :)
ReplyDeleteMaria, love your butterflies. Such a beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteI love your bright butterflies--they pop right off that white embossed background! The layered greeting is the frosting on the cake! Thanks for joining us at Color Hues.
