Tag You're It Challenge #45

I actually managed to make a card for a challenge today! I saw the inspiration card for the TAG You're It Challenge  on someone's blog and knew I had the right tag in my stash, so here it is!

I used a tag from my stash, which was die cut from a watercolour wash and stamped the sentiment from Justrite Stamps and clear embossed. Thank goodness for my MISTI, because I had to stamp about 10 times to get the sentiment dark enough on the watercolour paper. Next I used more of the the same wash,  stamped the butterflies, clear embossed, and then added Wink of Stellar for added shimmer. The butterfly stamps are from STAMPlorations and designed by Shirley Bampton - love them!

ETA: I just saw that the Simon Monday Challenge is all about butterflies - so I'm joining their challenge too! In fact I might have to make another card, because I LOVE butterflies!
The Simon Wednesday Challenge is to 'Make it Girlie' so I can join in there too!

    Any time you can add glitter - ADD GLITTER... For that matter, any time you can't add glitter you should still ADD GLITTER! Sparkly things are definitely the prettiest - as shown by this beauty! Great contrast with that stark white and the vibrant sponging!

    OOOH! I love the ombre effect you achieved with the inky background on the tag - eye candy!
