A Flutter By Wednesday with Susana's

Good morning!  This week there is a special treat at Flutter By Wednesday - for those of you who make a card and link it before Monday, February 22nd at midnight, you will be eligible for blog candy!  This week's challenge is to use hearts with your butterfly, fairy, or angel - apparently I will be fixing my card and posting new pictures later as I appear to have missed a heart or two!  This beautiful image is Tea for Two from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design.



With such a beautiful image, I wanted to keep the card itself simple.  I have long admired to style of Michele Boyer from Paper Cuts so this was my opportunity to imitate her amazing style.  The delightful surprise in this card is the mica paints which were used over the Koh-I-Noor and Lyra coloured pencils which are visible when viewed at certain angles.

 

I continued the simple style on the inside.



In addition to being entered into Flutter By Wednesday, this card will be entered into the challenges at Cupcake Crafts (Keep It Simple), A Spoon Full of Sugar (Spring Time) and the Diedrich Dare (colour challenge).

Thank you for looking!
