I'm back today to share a card I made last night for this week's Muse challenge. Had to wait until this morning to photograph it!
This week's muse is Therese Calvird and she has created a gorgeous card for us to use as our inspiration.
I visited my craft cupboard but came up with not much at all in the beginning so I decided to pretty much CASE Therese's card and used butterflies and flowers instead. I love the layout and the use of pastel colours so I stayed with this theme.
Here's what I came up with...
The vision in my head was a bit different to how it turned out and I'm not particularly loving this card now but as I made it for the challenge I thought I may as well share it! :)
The camera hasn't picked up the DP too well, the yellow butterfly has a white swirl design and the blue one has a white circle design.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Clearly Besotted Stamps - Butterfly Wishes Additions; Sentiment tag from unknown set
- Ink: Versafine - Black Onyx
- Die: Clearly Besotted Stamps - Butterfly Wishes
- Design Paper: Dovecraft - Back to Basics IV (6 x 6 paper pack)
- Cardstock, paper flowers and dew drops from stash
This was the inspiration card but I don't think I've done this one justice in the slightest!...
Ok, that's all from me today, I hope you all have a fabulous Saturday whatever you're up to.
Bye for now from sunny (yes sunny!) Torquay :)
I love your card - your butterflies look beautiful and I love the cute little flowers xx

ReplyDeleteVery pretty take on this week's Muse! Thanks for playing along!
ReplyDeleteAnita, this is so pretty. Love the pastels.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty. I like how you used the white flowers in place of the clouds.
ReplyDeleteI see you're on the same schedule as me, craft at night, photograph in the morning!
This is such a pretty card. I think you are being too hard on yourself, but we are always our own biggest critics. Those paper pieced butterflies are really sweet.
ReplyDeleteThis is very pretty! I agree with Joyce, we are our own biggest critics. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card - there can never be enough butterfly cards! Love the use of flowers instead of clouds.
ReplyDeleteSo soft and gentle, Neets, such a pretty take on the muse card! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card--wonderful use of the Muse inspiration!
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is I wasn't really keen on my card when I first made it either, but it kind of grew on me and now I like it.. lol. I really think your card is so sweet, such a great choice of pretty pastel papers!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty Neets! I love the pastel colours....so summery!
