Hi everyone!!!
Posting two cards this afternoon!!!
First up is another card I've made following Karren's lovely sketch over at the Freshly Made Sketches Blog.
This is my second take on the sketch:
The pieces of patterned paper are from Teresa Collins and MME.
I've got two vertical scorelines on the black strip - not very clear in the photo.
Can't remember where I got the metal butterfly.
Sentiment cut with Tim Holtz alphabet die.
Some twine and a single black plastic dot round it off.
I've also made a card for the current sketch over at the CAS(E) this Sketch Blog.
This is my card:
The flower stamp is from a local craft shop, Great Impressions.
Water coloured the flowers and added some shine with 3d Clear Gloss.
Afrikaans sentiment saying: 'Congratulations'.
That will be it for this Friday afternoon. Have a great start to your weekend!!!!
Thanks for the visit - hope to see you again soon!!!!

That golden butterfly just stole my heart and I just adore your pops of color on the panel in the second. Once again, you've outdone yourself!
Wow! Gorgeous-ness x 2!!! First card...of course the music sheet is awesome, but it's that single wee black enamel dot that rocks this design! So simple - sooooo effective!
Second card...beautiful pops of color shined up with a bit of gloss! Love the diagonal movement that you created with the placement of the flowers! Fab cards Petra!
What an AWESOME way to do a spotlight technique!!! This is gorgeous--I am totally pinning this one for future reference, friend! HUGS! :) Mynn xx
Two great cards Petra. Love the music background on the first and love the spotlight technique on the second. Have a great weekend.
Hugs.

Two gorgeous cards! Love that butterfly on your first card, he's so pretty. Love the sheet music paper too. And what a wonderful idea to color/not color your flowers on the second card. It's so out-of-the-box and so much fun. Love it. Two fun cards. Bev
Oh! Great cards, Petra! You always wow me with your use of B&W and popping it with some color. The second card is AWESOME with the frame extended as part of the picture inside. Your musical butterfly is sweet! Hope you are enjoying a wonderful day! hugs, de

Beautiful cards Petra. Love the butterfly with the circles on the first one... the background paper is awesome. Is that a charm butterfly? Can't tell... the spotlight coloring is amazing on the second card. Great take on the sketches. Enjoy your weekend!
Wow...two beautiful cards, Petra. Love the music papers and the butterflie. And the pretty flowers on your second card are just so gorgeous.

Awesome - both of them! I just run out of words to describe your cards -- I so love your style. Look at you getting in some water coloring too! ;)

Gold and black against that sheet music ... fabulous, Petra ... and that shimmery butterfly... gorgeous! The spotlighting on your floral card is just so pretty ... bold and vibrant and beautiful! Anita :)

Fabulous cards! I especially love the card you made for the CTS sketch -- it's fantastic!
Both of these are beautiful but in particular I like the CTS card!! You know how much I like partly coloured flowers! Have a great day, Petra!
These are awesome! Love the rustic look of the butterfly :)
Gorgeous cards!!! Beautiful butterfly on the first. There's that pretty twine circle! I love that sketch you used on the second and what a cool take, coloring only the inside layer! Love it!
