Misty's In the Spotlight series has been great to stock up on monochromatic layouts but they're also great for cards. In honor of World Cardmaking Day yesterday, I used the In the Purple Spotlight kit to create one to show you!
Using the In the Purple Spotlight kit, I created the card front in PSE 7.0 and printed it and an extra set of butterflies on textured cardstock.
I cut out the butterflies separately and glittered them to give more texture. I adhered them to the card front using glue dots and fluffed them to give a more 3D dimension after being inspired by these. Voila!
Hope that gives you some inspiration for the week!
The site Polka Dot Plum has some of the best challenges and every week, they have 5 new ones. This week, being the fontaholic that I am, the first one that I decided to tackle was the Font Challenge. The Dear Joe font is adorable and so versatile- it's becoming a fast favorite! Here's the layout that I created with it!
