Simply Stampin' Challenge

The following card is the one I've done in response to the challenge on the Simply Stampin' site.  http://simplystampinchallenge.blogspot.com/

It's a 5 x 7" card for a change.  The colour combo I used was Stampin' Up colours "Basic Black", "Riding Hood Red", "Very Vanilla" and "Sahara Sand".  I used "Love Letter" designer series paper on the lower section of the page.  The stamp set used is "Thanks for Caring" and the shape on the front of the card was cut using the "Top Note" die, both can be found in the new mini catalogue.  I put some bakers twine around the die cut shape and inked the edges of the card blank.  You can't see it in this photo, but there is also glitter on the butterflies wings.
If you like making cards and fancy a challenge, then head over to the Simply Stampin' site and have a go for yourself.
Chat later :o) xx

    I really like how you have echoed the top note die with the rounded corners on the card itself - those little details make all the difference! Thanks for entering the Simply Stampin' Challenge,
