365 Cards Day 227 In Motion, Stamp Something & Our Creative Corner Sketch


The challenge for today from 365 Cards is give the appearance of movement in the card. The trail behind the butterfly and the dandelion seeds floating on the breeze determined my choice of images from Unity Stamps. I also thought that the swirl embossing from Cuttlebug was in keeping with the theme.
I used the sketch from Our Creative Corner. I must admit to preferring simple sketches like this one and am tending to avoid the over fussy ones these days.
The challenge from Stamp Something is to use Brown plus something, my something is gold for both paper and embossing.
I haven't been to my exercise class this morning as my calf is still sore from yesterday's exertions!
