Good morning friends~ There's a new challenge starting up over at Double D Challenges, and the theme is "Sparkle & Shine".
For my card today, I used Spellbinders Infinity Punch & Pierce Plate from the Stylish Ovals Collection to create the background, adding a piece of Foiled Vellum from the Serenade of Autumn Collection to shine through in the center oval. The butterfly is a Dimensional Autumn Butterfly Sticker from the same Serenade of Autumn Collection. I added a trio of Gold Flecked Gemstones for a finishing touch.
While I had all the supplies out I figured I'd make a second card because two is always better than one. Right?
Now it's your turn to join in on the fun! Flutter on over to the Double D Challenge blog and see more amazing inspiration from my talented team mates.
Here's the inspiration board to help jump start your creative juices:
And here's what you could win when you play along:
ETA: I've also added one of these cards to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge ~ Sparkle & Shine
Thanks for stopping by!

Birgit, remember how excited I was when Marcia and I each bought that Glimmer machine? Let's just say that I'm glad to know there are beautiful vellum/foiled papers to BUY! I'd never get these crisp foiled papers with my machine!
Gorgeous use of the papers, and these lovely ovals and butterflies!

Oh, my goodness, they're both gorgeous! The pretty gold printed vellum adds such a soft touch and looks wonderful with the exquisite butterflies. I like how you put that smallest oval to work on your second. Also, I have to say those gemstones are the most interesting I've seen in a while. All over beautifully done, Birgit!

Our company left today and now I have time to comment, I hope you didn’t think I forgot. Both of these cards are so elegant and you added just the right amount of shine and sparkle. I have these dies, and I am pinny these for future inspiration.
