One more card!

I'm baaack! And so soon! ;) Okay, so here's my last card to share for today. This one is for the new The Cutting Edge Challenge! 



At first, I wasn't so sure I'd be able to whip something up! However, I did and I must say I really like it. ;)


Okay, so this took a little bit of time and thinking. I wanted to use 'a star' or 'stars' because that was one of the first things I took from the photo. Then I saw the color and knew I wanted to have something bold. So, I ended up using a star die with watercolor paper, some distress inks and 'voila'. Couldn't believe my vision in my mind, worked! lol I 'inlaid' the die cut, which made things pretty seamless. And to top everything off, I thought gold sequins would go perfectly! :) So, what you do think?!...

Thanks again for stopping on by!
I'll be seeing y'all soon! ;)

    All your thinking was well worth it. This is a stunning card. Love it. Love the blue star, and the bold black sentiment. Sequins are the perfect touch! (I've got one made, but not yet posted for this challenge...and let me just say, great minds and all that...lol) Bev
