Thanks for hosting the challenge, Jeanne! This one was fairly painless!
Todays challenge was to use circles and rectangles. Ribbon is the only embellisment you could use!
The butterfly was stamped using versamark, embossed using black ep. then bleached using a tiny paint brush to apply bleach within the embossed area. All the background panels were cuttlebugged. I used a punch to create the faux brads. The butterfly is from a set *Take Flight* by GinaK! I learned this tech. from GinaK. The layout is based on a design by Nicky (with Stamping Bella)! Thanks to you both!
This also for a DDC challenge I do with some SCS friends. This week we were to use bleach some place on our card. Just any little thingy on the card!
