Changed it a bit

DSC02998

Hello! Glad everyone had a laugh or two reading my last post :) My family had quite a LOT of fun with that as well, a little more than I like. I had fun reading your comments too! Anyway, I took yesterday’s card and my idea to emboss the plain base and implemented it. This is the result.

The picture is shot against the light

I changed it to a side fold and added a teal base. I think PINK base will look better. This is a lot better than yesterday’s card and it looks yummy. The embossing and colourful distressing reminds me of ice cream and candies!

Here is another view. Couldn’t get a proper pic today.

E.T, it looks you and I have a lot in common. We can't leave Clean and Simple cards alone. LOL
I really liked the butterflies in you previous post and think the sentiment would have been enough.

I like this version as well, just don't know if I like it better or not. Those butterflies are gorgeous on both cards.

Hugs and smiles

I'm liking this one too! The embossing gives it a different look for sure but they're both (yesterday's and today's) are just lovely.

Both cards are great! The embossing does add a little pizzazz though! After yesterdays post I was afraid the name Karachi was going to stick LOL! Glad that it is back to E.T! Your comment on my card, cracked me up!

Yep, I like the embossed dots, adds the perfect amount of texture to the background.

It *does* remind me of ice cream! And summer... or maybe just a lovely spring day. Perfect for this time of year!
