This week it's everyone's favorite - Anything Goes! The design team are all using Simon exclusives, and we'd love to see you using yours also, but it's not a requirement to enter our challenge. Here's my card this week:
I think this Leanna butterfly die is absolutely the perfect butterfly! I have always been a fan of anything filigree, so it is a must-have for me! It's small enough to be added to other elements, but so beautifully detailed that it can stand alone. Here I used a variety of pastel Basic Grey solid papers from several of their 6" pads and sprinkled my butterflies all across the surface, along with some tiny pearls in the same colors. I thought that the sentiment from Simon's You set was just the right complement to them, large enough to be noticed, but small enough to not detract from the beautiful butterflies.
When I make my cards and photograph them, I then go to my computer and edit the photos with my card in view. As I was editing this card, I glanced over and noticed how the bright track lights above my computer desk made these shadows and decided to share that with you also.
Heidi has again provided another $50.00 gift voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Store for the random winner of our challenge
