Runway Inspired Challenge


Here's are inspiration this week for the Runway Inspired challenge - a look from the Fall 2012 House of Holand.  I love that houndstooth and love using my stamp.....I embossed it in black, colored in the white areas with markers, cut out a butterfly shape, and here's my card:


supplies: white, black and bright yellow cardstock, Hero Art K5175 Houndstooth, VeraFine onyx black, Hero Arts Ultra Fine clear embossing powder, yellow, bright pink and turquoise markers, unknown butterfly die (Spellbinders?), Technique Tuesday Mon Amis Paris sentiment, 3D foam squares

Both the black panel and the butterfly are popped up.
