This weeks challenge is to not only create a friendship inspired card but to create one by using chocolate brown/blues & cream colors. The inspiration picture used was from a gorgeous bedroom bedding set in the above colors which had some striping, solids & buttons. Below is my interpretation of this weeks challenge that I call " Sweet Friend".
I really love how these colors work so well together. I just happened to have the chocolate brown, blue & cream papers in my stash so when I saw this weeks challenge...I already knew which paper drawer to run to : )
I wanted to add some more dimension to the floral design so I used some Glossy Accents on one of the flowers and put a small paper flower & brad on top.
I think the butterflies are just so cute....sort of looks like this one if bursting from inside the card don't you think?
I had a very "sweet friend" give me a small mirror years ago with some butterflies & a sentiment of friendship on it. These butterflies reminded me of that gift from long ago and brought back some wonderful memories of that friendship.
Here's the inside of the card...I wanted to carry the butterfly theme through into the inside so I added a smaller one to make sure I left plenty of room to write to my "sweet friend".

ReplyDeletegorgeous, Abby! i love how you tied the look together with silver!!! i had to do that with mine too - i always need a 4-color palette to work with!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful!! Such a natural look with so much style! Love it!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Love your card! I really love the inside. It has such great follow-through from the front, but it's so pretty that it could be on the outside of the card! :) Speaking of the front, I love the dp you used. I also love all the distressing and the birdcage (I'm a birdcage fan! lol). My fav part is the little shabby triangle you made - very creative! Super job!
ReplyDeleteIt's summer, it's hot replica watches and maybe you're going to enjoy your well-deserved holidays, or not yet but it takes a watch as light as a feather to replica watches uk forget on your wrist.
ReplyDeleteThe Promaster Diver Titanium BN0200-81E is the ideal watch. Because? Because Citizen is the world's number one watch brand for fake rolex titanium. Classic in its lines, very resistant and very light, it is one of our favorite sub.
The rather imposing case (44 mm), however, has replica rolex rather short lugs that are connected with an integrated bracelet which should also meet the fake watches slightly smaller wrists. It's all in Super Titanium Citizen. Mount the proverbial Eco Drive movement with rolex replica 180 days of power reserve that is charged with light. A true diver waterproof up to 200 meters ISO 6425 certified which fake rolex uk despite the bracelet weighs only 120 grams.
