I am seriously liking the PDCC colors!

DSC03517

Hello everyone!

I needed a quick card to give to my aunt who had a knee surgery today. I didnt want to give a conventional get well soon card, just something to let her know she is important. I thought PDCC colours would be best for her card and I found the perfect sentiment too!

Here’s my CAS card…

Wow! This will be my third entry for PDCC!

I have painted the pink and purple panel. The butterfly is from by silhouette stash. It is covered with chunky white holographic glitter from Pie Lane. The orange diamond gems are also from Pie Lane. The sentiment is from TradeFish Designs. I have used two different colors of ink for the sentiment.

That’s it! Hope my attempt at CAS is OK. After making such heavily embellished cards this one seems so “naked”!

That purple color has gone to your brain...this card does seem naked!! maybe a dash of faux or in your case real stitching around the edges would make it not-so naked..
but that glittery butterfly!! ooh! heaven!!
