off the wall friendship card

i saw the color challenge at off the wall craftiness this week, and i knew i wanted to play! i love the color combination, and have already used it in some of my cards in the past, as a matter of fact! here are the inspiration colors:



i made this card with some help from Danielle at GirlRacer Scrap yesterday! i don't know why, but i love adding little hearts to things! so i had already punched the little hearts out, and was not sure how to use them. do you ever have one of those moments when you have all the greatest makings of a card, but you can't quite put it together? well that was me! luckily, Danielle was there and suggested i use the hearts as butterflies! genius! i was just going to have the hearts 'raining' out of the clouds, but it's been done so much, i wasn't liking the way it looked. but i do love how the heart-erflies tured out! :)



i also used red ribbon, and folded it down (and cut the ends of the ribbon decoratively) so it would look like a banner! and then the sentiment is metal accent letters that slide onto the ribbon! i also popped up some of the clouds so the card wouldn't be so 'flat'.



thanks for checking out the card!

enjoy!
