Aqua Butterfly

Hello!

I am back with a quick post to show you a card that I made inspired by the colour combo that A2Z Scrapbooking gave as the first challenge as part of Saturday's WCMD celebration:

 
The colour combo is aqua, silver and white and I used the lovely butterfly from Hero Arts Butterfly set white embossed on vellum with the polka dot layer stamped in Tide Pool.  I also used HA's Confetti Stencil to create a soft inked background. 

I will also link up at Virginia's View current Clean and Simple challenge and at Addicted to CAS where the codeword is Stencil.

I hope you like it!

See you again soon, Sarah x

    Really gorgeous card, Sarah! I love your soft background...looks a bit like a Bokeh effect, and your butterfly is so pretty! I also love how you added the little butterfly next to the sentiment!
    Thanks so much for playing along with us at a2z Scrapbooking for our WCMD Challenge! Best of luck in the drawing!

    I'm not sure there's anything prettier than this color palette, except maybe you utilizing polka dots! This is just lovely! That butterfly is sweet and am lovin' this tag. What a wonderful card. Have a great weekend. Bev

    So, so beautiful! This is one of my favourite colour combos, so I loved this straight away. The way you did the butterfly is genius, must give this a go myself. And your so good with your stencils, the hint of blue behind the tag is perfect. An absolute winner in my book!
