It’s time for another Create with Connie and Mary’s Inspiration Monday!!!  Isn’t this collage GORGEOUS!  I love the gray/white/black color combination!

 

So, here is what I came up with using a new color, Granite Gray, and the beautiful Springtime Impressions Thinlits!!!  LOVE how lacy and delicate they look!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Gray Granite cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Gray Granite was embossed with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder and added on top.
• The floral design was cut with the Springtime Impressions Thinlits from Whisper White and adhered with Monoadhesive Glue.
• The greeting from Lots of Happy stamp set was stamped with Memento Black on Whisper White and punched with the Pretty Label Punch and added with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• The butterfly was cut from Basic Black and added with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A couple Rhinestone jewels were added to the butterfly for a little bling.

 

It’s a very simple card made elegant with the Thinlits, don’t you think?  OK…go check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Challenge this week over on Create with Connie and Mary!
