For CAS(e) this Sketch and CAS(ual) Friday

Hello sweet peeps,

Here is my card for CAS(e) this Sketch for this week and CAS(ual) Friday this week where the theme is to use glitter. I have used a Hero Arts clear stamp border from a set and have stamped it with orchid ink. I went over the entire image with my trusted Sakura gold pen to give it a sparkle. The MS layered butterfly has been treated the same way and looks quite pretty in real life. The antennae are home made and I have stuck crystal on the butterfly for added interest.




See you later...

Love,

Monica

Oooh, love your gold antennae! It's not glitter, but still sparkly. Your glitter accents are very pretty as well. Thanks for playing with the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!

Two cards today! Wow! Love your recycled card (I very much enjoy recycling pretty store bought cards - glad to see I am not alone. Using the brochure was a great idea!) Your sketch interpretation on the butterfly card is wonderful! I would not have thought of using images to create the linear part of that card. Wonderful cards today! hugs, de

I like your sparkly butterfly and I have not seen Asia motifs in ages but love that you used them here as a design element!
Thank you so much for joining CAS-ual Fridays

Monica, my dear - you are amazing! I LOVE butterflies and you used pink (another fav color of mine). I'm so in love with this card! I just love the way you used the border punch for the sketch! You are incredibly creative; this is amazing! How clever you are. I love coming to your blog because you definitely make me smile when I see your work. I appreciate your warm and lovely comments - it really is wonderful having a blogger friend like you in the midst to keep me going - thank you so much! ;-)
