Friday Mashup Challenge 19

This week the Friday Mashup challenge is all about one of my favorite things.  Butterflies!

So, here's the "Mash Up!" challenge:
1. Create a project with "Butterflies and Bling".
2. Create a project using "Marina Mist, Perfect Plum and your Choice of ONE other color and ONE Neutral".
3. Or "Mash it Up!" and create a project that using "Butterflies, Bling and the Color Combo"!


For the second week in a row, I chose to Mash it Up and creat a card using the color challenge with a butterly and some pretty bling!

I ultimately chose basic black as my color of choice and crumb cake as my neutral.  Or was it crumb cake as my color and basic black as my neutral?  Ack!  I don't know!  But what I do know is that I like the two together!  I used some retired Halloween designer paper for my Perfect Plum layer.  It's pretty much the only dp I own that is Perfect Plum and it's not very Halloween-y so I use it for all sorts of cards. 

And for my butterfly, I used the gorgeous image from the retired Simple Friendship stamp set.  This is one of those stamp sets that I can't possibly get rid of.  The butterfly is too beautiful to give up!  I stamped the image in Versamark onto Marina Mist cardstock then embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I finished it up with a bit of rhinestone bling.  And my "sparkle" sentiment is there to pay a little homage to all that bling!

So, I hope you'll give this challenge a try.  Visit the Friday Mashup and see the samples from the design team.  They will definitely inspire you to give this one a go!
