BLUE FLIGHT

Made a card today for three challenges - CAS Mix-Up (watercolor and flight), MFT slimline challenge plus things with wings and Let's Squash It (watercolor and nature).



I made my card a mini slimline (3.25x6.25).  First I smooshed a piece of wc paper with blue - did only one part in the darker colors so that I would have part of it for the very light hazy background.  Trimmed down a piece for the background and ran thru with 3D embossing folder (interpret it as swirly winds or leafy stems).  Layered this up on the card base, added the butterfly, sentiment and sequins and done!


Thanks for visiting my blog today.
