Thank you for being the hostess with the mostest this week, Sheri. I did look at your teapot, I promise, and I was going to make a black and white card with a red accent, but I think I need colour in my life just now . I did add a red accent with my butterfly. Not really into tattoos either, but I thought this doodled image was appropriate - and all the piercing for my faux stitching as per yesterday's TLC!
5 3/4" square base, edges doodled with a red marker.
Main layer is wrinkle free distress using Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass, Worn Lipstick and Mustard Seed. Then I stamped it with CAC Gradation misted with Mustard Seed reinker and gold Perfect Pearls left from last week. You can't really see it in the photo, no matter how hard I tried. I stamped the doodles and verse with Versafine Black. The flower was stamped separately and coloured with Couleur d'Art pencils, then cut out and popped up on a foam dot. I added a butterfly and faux stitching.

What a bright idea, another one I didn't think of! Stitching faux or real, kind of like a needle going into skin only its the CS! WOW, I am so amazed at all the thought and creativity this week! Really NICE cards too! No tats here, so my mind just shut right down! Nice to know there are so many other OPEN minds out there!

Just getting back to the Tuesday challenge after a busy day yesterday. Hope you see my message because I think your card is perfect. I can just feel the motion of the dainty butterfly and the flower being touched by the breeze.
