MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES..CHALLENGE 148.....BRIGHT ON DARK

 

Hi and welcome to all my very talented and craft loving friends.

It's the 1st of the month again and time for a new challenge over at

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES

The challenge is hosted by the lovely Tinz and she would like to see

 Bright on Dark.


The challenge runs from today till the 29th of November.

Here is a couple of cards I came up with.



The first card is a 6"x8" size and cut down from an 8"x8" card stock.

 The second card is a 5.5"x5.5" size amde out of an A4 piece of card.

I used some glitter washi tape around the edges of the black card stock and a Butterfly cut out of some card I have had for a while, it has gold edges but it doesn't show in the photo.

Coloured in with gel glitter pens. 

The second card is layers of black and coloured card stock with a Butterfly in the middle.


Thank you so much for your precious time.

I really appreciate every visit and wonderful comment you make.

Lots of crafty love. JENNY.
