MUSE

This week's MUSE over at the Muse Card Club is Ardyth and I love her style - fun, funky, CAS, often quirky and always interesting.  http://musecardclub.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/muse-challenge-10.html   So I knew that I'd have to play along in the challenge this week and see if I could replicate her style.


 I loved the rainbow of colour on the black background so chose to replicate those elements from the card, changing the shape and the swapping the circles for butterflies.  


I masked off an area on the white card stock with washi tape and stamped 4 butterflies from Clearly Besotted's Butterfly Wishes Additions in 5 shades of memento ink - I would normally have done this in a standard rainbow pattern but I went for a more random approach following Ardyth's card.  I originally intended for all the decoration to be flat but I messed up the embossed sentiment so stuck a strip over the top and embossed it again.  I finished with a couple of die cut butterflies over the top using the matching die that you can now get with this set.

Can't wait to see the full gallery this week - should be an interesting one.
