Beate Weekend Sketch #58

Another Friday, another Weekend Sketch Challenge! I used the butterfly from the Happiness Always set and a sentiment from Heart From the Heart. I thought it would work well with the band across the card. I decided to go with a bit of a funky color combination. I just LOVE all of the new In-Colors, but I usually stick with the same combination of colors. This time I changed it up. I was going to use just plain white on the "sentiment band" of paper, then debated about Kiwi Kiss, but finally decided to go really bright with Tangerine Tango. The butterflies are stamped in Onyx Black Versafine and covered in blue Stickles. I can't wait to see what Beate, Cambria, Jenn, Lori, MaryJo and Sharon have come up with using the sketch. Thanks for stopping by today and have a great weekend! SUPPLIES USED: Stamps- Happiness Always, Heard From the Heart (SU); Ink- Onyx Black (Versafine); Paper- Pacific Point, Baja Breeze, Tangerine Tango, Basic Black (SU); Accessories: paper piercer, blue Stickles, circle punch, lollipop ribbon; Finished card measures 4.25" square

Love the pop of tangerine and the sparkly blue/black butterfies, Charmaine, and that sentiment is perfect for the sketch! Savannah is adorable in her dance clothes -- I wish my girls wanted to take dance but I can't talk them into it! Have a "tappy" weekend!
