Fruity Flight ........



This card was made for this weeks challenge over on the Less is More Blog where you are required to use citrus colours in your card creation.

I kept it clean and simple and started with a white card blank trimmed on the top side on the right to reveal the back of the card.  I attached a piece of orange Washi tape on the back left to add a bit of colour.





I then selected 3 colours of textured cardstock in orange, lime and yellow and punched out a number of butterflies with a Martha Stewart punch.

These were embellished with a clear jewel, shaped and stuck in place with glue as shown representing a 'flight' of butterflies.




Finally I stamped the sentiment in black Versafine ink............Clean, fresh and fruity !  This card is available to buy in my Etsy Store.
