This first card is one of those fast & easy ones.
The Muse for Challenge #14 is Virginia Lu and this card.
I replaced the flowers with butterflies and made a birthday card sticking very close to Virginia's design. The color palette is from Colour Q Challenge #186.
This card is also being entered in the Simon Says . . . Anything Goes challenge at Simon Says Stamp this week.
This second card is for the Make It Monday #113: Perfect Pearls Challenge. You can see Nichole Heady's tutorial here and join in the fun.
Oh my, I went in twenty different directions with this challenge. Let's just say the recycle basket is a little fuller this morning. I might come back to some of the other ideas later in the week, but this card came about because I rescued the sentiment from another card by cutting it down to a small panel.
It is very hard to have everything shine in one photo, but you can see here I was able to use multiple colors of Perfect Pearls on the one stamp. This was way easier than I thought it would be and even wiping off the excess powder didn't mess up the color separation.
Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
