Soft Wings!

Hello peeps!

I hope you all have had a lovely day...

Today I am back to share my card for this weeks Simon Says challenge..



I decided to pull out my Tim Holtz distress markers and have a little play with them, direct colouring onto the Soft Wings butterfly from Penny Black, I then added a splash of Mr Huey's Silver Mist to either side of the butterfly, adding a sentiment and mounting it to the front of the card..

Pretty simple card, but hopefully a cheerful one at that to brighten someone's day!

Now it is time to check out what my fabulous teamies have created and deets of the challenge for this week, be sure to click the blinkie below...



As always the lovely Heidi will give one lucky winner $50 to spend in store..



Well short and sweet from me tonight..

Hugs

So, so pretty. I like how you used the mist --- I just ordered some, as I have never used it before. I love that abstract look that the mist creates.
