Runway Inspirated #33

I saw Virginia's inspiration for Runway Inspired and decided I needed to have a go.

I was inspired by the diamond lacey look of the top and the black line drawings.

I also used the latest sketch challenge at Hero Arts as well
 heroartssketchapril2013
I used Hero Arts Square Pattern with Squeezed lemonade distress ink. I cut and trimmed to make a panel for lower half of the card.  For the top part, I masked the edge and then using some Grey Flannel Memento Ink, stamped the Flourish Background.  The sentiment is also a Hero Arts sparkle clear set.   I stamped the butterfly from a Hero Arts/Sizzix stamp and die set.

Also entering into:
 The Paper Nest Dolls challenge ~ Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamps challenge ~ Anything Goes 
City Crafter Challenge blog~ Anything goes ~ with a twist... I've used Pearls ( Ros's blog)

I am enjoying having a few days off after Easter..  The weather has stayed nice although we have rain forecast for tomorrow.  

Enjoy your week.
