On yer bike!

It's Bellarific Friday and that means it's the end of another working week for me - woo hoo!  Here is my Bellarific Babe card and this week we were challenged to use kraft somewhere on my makes so here is my take on it...



I originally thought about going nuts with the kraft but then I ended up going minimal with it!  Not sure how that happened but I quite like the fresh look of this card.  I added some glimmer by adding Stickles glue on her outfit, the flowers and then some iridescent sequins dotted bout randomly.  This is really hard for me to do - I don't do random!  Here's a close up...



The next challenge is to be inspired by the sketch below - I hope you can join us.

  16. Now that is just groovy Mary! I love the minimal use of the Kraft, it's placement stands out so wonderfully just like that. I'm sure you could have put more on there, but you were probably busy passing me up in Candy Crush!! ;) LOL
    Hugs!
