Hi! This card was made for today's Clean And Simple Challenge and for this week's Featured Stamper Challenge: Vicki Dutcher!
Now, I wanted to make a REALLY simple, fast card for these challenges, as it was 1:02 AM when I started...I know, I was up really late, again. And, it's not Markie's fault...I was watching Leverage and then over to The Glades, and that lead to Mad Men which lead to Rubicon...I can't believe I got so wrapped up in TV!!! Cable at that! LOL
So, I decided upon This Cardto CASE of Vicki's. Now, I'm aware that it was a CASE itself, but it SCREAMED Vicki! I changed it to a small GARDEN scene for the Clean and Simple Challenge. I used 2 rhinestones instead of peebles.
The butterfly was stamped in Noir onto Premium Colored Pencil Paper. Next, I used Memento markers and Pearlescent Watercolors to color it. I was cut out and popped with a glue dot. The flowers were stamped in Noir and sponged in with Cote d' Azure Palette Ink.
Finished card size: 4 1/2" square
Total time to complete: 19 minutes (It took longer to take the photo and write this than to make the card!)

You mean I missed the Glades!!! I've only seen one episode but I think I liked it! Anyway, I digress - what a fantastic double challenge card - perfectly perfect. Love it.
