Runway Inspired Challenge / Curtain Call / Card Concept

It's a very interesting photo inspiration in this week's Runway Inspired challenge. The background immediately spoke to me, but the colours of the outfit were a bit too bold and primary  for my liking. But guess what happened? I ended up basing my card on the skirt and coat, because I couldn't get passed the butterflies!



The colours of my card are also inspired by the Curtain Call card challenge.



And last, but not least, this card also fits the theme at the Card Concept - Birthday card (Clean and Simple). 




Yes, I've used my favourite Penny Black butterfly stamp again! There was so much colour in the butterfly that I decided to leave the rest of my card CAS. I've used twinkling H2os and black embossed the image. The leaves were also coloured with Twinkling H20s. Looking at it now, I wish I used a bit more red, but c'est la vie!

Thanks for visiting - have a great day!
