Every Tuesday I do a Double Dare challenge with some SCS friends. Itsapassion (Anne) was the hostess this week. She sent us this pretty DP and white doily and her challenge was for us to use these items somewhere on our card.
I sewed the DP to a sage shadow panel and attached that to the cream card. I sponged the doily with Groovy Guava.
I colored this beautiful butterfly stamp with my Prismacolor markers - cut it out - added wire antennae and attached it to the sage circle with foam dimensionals.
Of course I had to add extra Martha Stewart punched butterflies and silver stickles for the shimmer!
Accessories: Crystal ice stickles, foam dimensionals, Prismacolor markers, embossing stamp pad, black detail EP, white paper doily, circle punch, circle nestability, sponge, butterfly punch: Martha Stewart, paper piercer & mat, hot gun, black wire, sewing machine
Holy cow, you are rocking the cards tonite! Egads, this one is as gorgeous as the first one! Wonderful, WONDERFUL colors and layout and all of the details are exactly perfect.

The stamped and colored butterfly is gaw-jus, Julia!! I like how you sponged the doily, too. Our designer papers were different colors, but we both used the punched butterflies! Beautiful card!
