LIM - A Touch of Turquoise

There is a color challenge this week at the Less Is More blog; a touch of turquoise.  Turquoise is one of my favorite colors and this Memory Box ballerina die filled my thoughts when I saw the challenge.  I'm late submitting because work & life got in the way this week, but I had time to put ink, die and gems to paper today so here's my card:

Thanks so much for stopping by today, and don't forget:

Be your own kind of Beautiful!

Take Flight

The challenge at The Card Concept this week is Butterflies.  Butterflies are among my favorite stamps, I have quite a few.  This is my card for the challenge, I used the "Layered" look for my card:

Splatter #1

I recently received 2 stencils from stamping friends and although this new "craze" wasn't something I jumped on board for I decided to try one of the stencils today.  I took inspiration for my card from the sketch at  Case this Sketch challenge blog; here's my 1st stenciled card:

Here's the sketch:

I added some beads to give the card interest.
