Theme Thursday - "Orange"


This week the theme over at Theme Thursday is the color orange! Here's the "skinny" on my skinny: I glued scrapbook paper to a 3x5 piece of cardstock, then attached butterfly wings to my vintage image and glued it onto the card. Next, I added the computer-generated French text and embellished the skinny with flourish stamps, antique lace, paper flowers, crystals, and orange Stickles. Finally, I ran turquoise Colorbox chalk ink around the edges, and, Voilà! (It's not perfect by any means, but I think it looks a little better up close and personal--just click on it!)

Jann, this is gorgeous. And I'm so glad I enlarged it to see all those wonderful details. Your use of orange in all the different places is very creative.
