Saturated Canary Double Take

Just a very quick post before I head off to bed ...

I just made this card today following the sketch at iSpy Sketches and I must say that as clean and simple as the design is I really struggled with this?!?  I coloured the gorgeous image pretty quickly and then when I went to make the card I really struggled with what to use for my 4 elements on the left side (I challenged myself to not use buttons or flowers!) and then remembered that I had bought this Spellbinders die set ages ago and never used it ... and so the card was created .... 

I have to say it's a real "Look Mum, no flowers" card and I really had to think about how I was going to get some girly bling on it lol ... Think the glitter and the rhinestones look OK.

I will hopefully be back at some stage over the next couple of days .... We have a long weekend here in Australia and Miss Bella at a friend's all day tomorrow and sleeping over so hoping to just have some 'play time'.

Until next time

Ciao

Julie
