Artful Delight Friday - Just for You
Happy Friday!
Here is my Artful Delight card this week. Very CAS, but I love how this turned out. At first I wasn't sure that these two papers would work together, but I think the black quatrefoil pattern on the butterfly takes the focus off the houndstooth pattern so that the focus is on the gorgeous color of the paper.
The butterfly stamp doesn't actually have the butterfly body on it - I colored that in with a marker.
This is one of those cards that I stared at for a while, trying to decide if it was too simple, if I should add something else, but ultimately I decided I like the simplicity and bold contrast of the colors/patterns.
Hope that you have a great end to your week. Picking up Ellie this weekend and Andrew gets home Sunday. So excited to have the whole family back together again! Have a wonderful weekend!
Supplies Used: Artful Delight August Card Kit; Memento - Tuxedo Black Ink; CTMH - Dimensional Foam Tape; Tombow - Mono Adhesive; American Crafts - Black 05 Precision Point Pen
