Best Wishes Card

Hello Friends!

Hope you are all doing great and enjoying yourselves.

Here the temperatures are soaring. Though it is spring season, day temperatures are quite high. Today I felt the hot wind which is quite dangerous. It is too early for the hot winds. But this year summer may be quite unbearable.

I am sharing a very simple and easy to make card. 

Best Wishes Card

Base for the card is cream coloured Handmade paper which has brown fibers and slightly rough texture.

Brown is not one of my favourite colours for making cards. May be I can use it in scene cards if required or a little scrap here and there. But as a background, I don't prefer it. I had to use this brown designer paper some where. So  used it here.

The top layer was brown coloured embossed designer paper. 

The scalloped circle was cut using Sizzix Dies. The edges were dabbed with brown pigment ink. The sentiment was stamped with black ink and touched up with brown pen. 

The butterfly was cut with Spellbinders Butterfly corner Die. It has embossed design on the wings. The edges were dabbed with brown ink. I used foam dots to give it a slight dimension.

On the whole, the card looks sober and dull. May be a little bit of colour could have brightened it up. 

What is your opinion? 

Any suggestions as to what else can be added? Please do drop in your suggestions and comments.

Thanks a lot to all you beautiful people sending so much love and for lots of your support.
