This is the card I made for the Persuasion and the Art of Frippery challenge for the VSN mini. The challenge was to make a simple card and then make another one adding embellishments.

i too love the layout, and the use of "color blocking" really striking!

I also especially like the yellow behind the butterflies in the embellished version. Very nice card. (I'm not so good at using contrasting colors, so this is a good nudge for me.)

It just amazed me how very simple changes can totally change the impact of a card. Just the addition of PP, ribbon, and blocking under the images made it a whole new piece of art! You nailed it--totally got it.
