Cosmic Colours

Hi, everyone!  I almost forgot about Cosmic Strawberry's Cosmic Colours Challenge this month - so glad Colette posted a reminder!  I have been wanting to use my stash of washi tape ever since I saw my friend Patti's cards here, so here's the card I came up with based on the colour swatch shown below.


I used my Marianne Craftables butterfly die and a mix of washi tape from Downtown Tape and Forever in Time.  The sentiment clear stamp and gems are from Studio G.  Cardstock is Staples. Here's the colour swatch:

    Great use of that colorful washi, and I was just about to mention the missing kitty on your card when I scrolled down :) Cute Honeydew :)

    When I saw your entry in our wings challenge at Incy Wincy Designs, I was intrigued as to how you were going to incorporate a kitty image with the wings. Like Carol, I was going to mention about the missing kitty when I scrolled down and just burst out in fits of laughter! Had a giggle about the comments - almost more about the cats! Anyway, before I forget to comment on the card itself - I love the die that you have used. I think it is one that I have too but never really used it as a focal point as you have. Love the deep colour you have chosen for the butterfly too. Thanks for joining the wings challenge at Incy Wincy Designs this week.
