FBW260 Color Challenge - Brown; CASology Cue Card - Brown


Welcome to Flutter By Wednesday 260.  This week's challenge is to use the color brown along with your butterfly or fairy.  This is actually the second card I made.  I wasn't crazy about the first one.  Using brown was quite a challenge for me - but that's what this is all about, right?
Remember if there are 50+ entries in this week's challenge Danni will be giving away a prize - so you might as well create a card and link it yo the Flutter By Wednesday blog.
I used three shades of brown markers and colored directly onto the dogwood image and butterfly image before stamping.  I used vanilla card stock instead of white.
This week at CASology Challenge blog the cue card is BROWN!  So I am submitting this card for that challenge and to Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Anything Goes.


Thanks for coming by!

  6. OK girly, this isn't the card that is showing over at the FBW blog -- you pulled a switch on us (grin). Both cards, however, are lovely. I really liked the one on the blog for its unique image of the butterfly on the butterfly, but I also like the clean, crisp look of this lovely image on the white. Both top notch beauties!
