Hello again! I'm back with my sample for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge {you can see the sketch in the post below} and I have to tell you, I'm not crazy about this card. What is it? Maybe the proportions are off? It's the butterfly... I don't know, but something is really bugging me about it. Maybe it's the paper - the paper is WAY out of my comfort zone, haha! I'm going to give this sketch another go since I really like it. Then I'll feel better and can recycle this one for parts. Come on, you know you do that too, heheh...
Enjoy the rest of your day -
Karen
recipe -
stamps: flight of the butterfly
ink: pixie pink, basic black
paper: tempting turquoise, very vanilla, kaleidoscope dsp
accessories: playground designer buttons, butterfly punch, square/rectangle/square scallop nestabilities (spellbinders), embroidery thread
I can't find anything I don't like about this card! Maybe it is the brightness, or the butterfly... I am personally scared of bright colors, lol. But you card looks so cheery! And I love that little flower button.
ReplyDeleteI think your card is bright and cheery! I would not take it apart but send it to someone!
ReplyDeleteStop! Please don't take this card apart! I love it...so Happy! These are hard colors for me to work with but you have inspired me to give them a try...sometime! I love how you stamped the butterfly on designer paper...so CUTE!
ReplyDeleteI concur with all comments above - I love this card! :) It's bright and happy - what more can you ask for?
ReplyDeleteI agree with what the others say Karen. I think your card is beautiful. BTW, that happens to me all the time too and then someone comes along and says 'wow, that's beautiful', but I still don't see it that way. I looked at your card to see if there was something I wouldn't like if I'd made it and just thought it's beautiful. Karin
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! I was on the fence about that paper---nah, I liked it, I just wasn't ready to buy it yet....but seeing this REALLY makes me want it!!! I like the sketch too....very cute!
ReplyDeleteOoohhh Noooooo... I LOVE it!!! I think it looks GORGEOUS. If i'd attempted to use that paper together... well lets just say it may have been disastrous... but you've done it beautifully. I think you're being a little hard on yourself my lovely. Maybe have another Tim Tam!!! hahaha
