Sunday already. *Sigh* And in the blink of an eye it will be Sunday again! The days are just coming around way too fast.Anyhow I want to share a card I made that was inspired by Vicki's lovely card over at the Muse challenge. I tried some misting with a chevron mask and popped up the black panel and then the Skipping Stones Designs butterfly and the banner to add lots of dimension. I am in need of birthday cards so I stuck with Vicki's sentiment and I'm going to play along with Seize the Birthday.

Love how you've included all the elements of Vicki's Muse, but mixed it up so it's completely you! Thanks for joining us this week!
ReplyDeleteThis is super cool !! Love the negative space being used a BG :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely butterfly, Jen, and the misting is so even. I don't know how you did it but it looks great.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. Your inspiration is clear, yet your finished card is very different -- love it! Perfect bling placement as always, too.
ReplyDeleteLove that chevron background Jen, such a brilliant card
ReplyDeleteI have the biggest stash of 'hello' 'thinking of you' etc etc cards, I'm with you on the basics I need to increase my stash as well and what a great way to do it, this butterfly totally pops off the card front Jen!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the red against your background -- quite the fabulous card! Thanks for joining in at Muse!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful take on Vicki's inspiration Jen. I love the chevron background.
ReplyDeleteSuch a striking card!
ReplyDeleteJen, your interpretation of Vicki's card is bold and fantastic!

ReplyDeleteLove your interpretation of Vicki's card. That butterfly is so pretty, and those chevrons work so well as a backdrop. The black card front is so dramatic.
